according to MaisFutebol, the game Estoril-Benfica will be played at Estádio do Algarve!

And Penafiel wants to play with Benfica in Guimarães...
Viva a verdade desportiva!
If you guys have the chance, you should listen to what Jesualdo Ferreira said in the flash interview after the game against Estoril.
And like Dias Ferreira said on O Dia Seguinte, I'm not gonna even insult your intelligence explaining why this is against the sporting truth.

viva a salvação das dívidas dos clubes!




and Braga wants to play Sporting in BRAGA :chew:

 

[Punkt]

we aren't guilty that the clubs look in us a way to gain more money. Benfica is the only club that pack stadiums. blame Estoril.

Like Petit would say, it's another kind of incentivos...

they know they will only get some more money by playing in a bigger venue, cause they know the stadium will be filled with benfiquistas that are willing to pay high sums to see the team play.

you would do the same if you were the director of a bottom league club in financial crisis.

So lemme get this straight.......Estoril want to play Benfica at Estádio do Algarve. That's just nuts. May as well play the f*cking match in one of the Portuguese ex-pat communites in the USA. I'd line up in a f*cking heartbeat if it were to be played at Gillette Stadium, no matter the ticket prices.

I think the league don't allow SuperLiga matches in foreign soil. I remember that Campomaiorense wanted to play with us in Badajoz years ago and that wasn't allowed

I wish they had the Super Taca over here in the USA like they did in Paris a few years back, it would be packed for sure 64,000 strongat Gillette, and since Kraft and LFV are friends why not some cheerleaders

Sporting beat Newcastle 4-1! And without Liedson!

I really don't mind their European success, as I'm not one of those that supports other teams when Portuguese team are involved (but honestly, I also don't cheer for our rivals), but it worries me a lot that they're gaining a huge confident boost for the championship too. If we stumble in the next games, I can clearly see Sporting as the Superliga champions...

I always cheered for portuguese teams and I jumped when they scored the third goal, and this win was great for portuguese football, we're now 5th in UEFA Ranking.

 

[SCP19O6]

And Portugal may win 3 european cups in consecutive years!

 

[Funky--K]

[bmpv666]

And Portugal may win 3 european cups in consecutive years!

and that's a great achievement to our football

 

[Virgo]

btw do we get something for being 5th placed in UEFA rank in terms of teams in the CL or uefa?

No

the 4th, 5th and 6th get the same number of spots.

[SCP19O6]

I can foresee a certain game between Mourinho and Peseiro in Monaco, in a few months.

 

[Virgo]

[zuppafly]

It's good to see everyone happy around here with this Sporting win!

I was jumping like a madman, celebrating the win!

Lets hope for those 3 years in a row for Portuguese football!

Congratulations lagartagem!! Your team desearves this moment.
