The sacked Pacheco? I don´t think that it´s a wise move. We all know what happened when he left in the first time. I think that Jaime Pacheco, did what he could, it´s not like Boavista had an amazing roster.
On another note, i can´t believe Naval got promotion. Nunca pensei que viveria para ver a escumalha figueirense com um clube na Superliga. Congrats on their achievement never the less. It will be sweet to kick their asses next year (i keed i keed).

Now that's a stupid move by the Boavista board.

hope Boavista gets Luis Campos and he builds a great team for.... the 2nd league 2006/2007

 

[Virgo]

oh man 1 - 0 Benfica

but it wasn't a penalty in my opinion

shame to win like this, hope we score another or the "levados ao colo" talks will be on all week and then the Sporting board will put the pressure on the ref and he'll f*ck up for sure

Of course if the Paulo Ferreira handball vs Barcelona was a penalty this is a penalty too, but I think neither were penalties

 

[Paulo Da Silva]

once again, let's see what Punkt says now. lol

 

[Virgo]

and Ricardo Rocha made a penalty to Lourenço that wasn't signalled... Belenenses got screwed although I think we should have had a penalty in the 1st half as well that wasn't signalled.

 

[Paulo Da Silva]

oh well, every team gets helped so i won't make a big deal over this, like Vinnie Jones said, the only teams afected are the little guys.

by the way, Vinnie i've been saying good stuff about Castro for atleast a year now

 

[SCP19O6]

Benfica won, yupi
U.Leiria, Estoril, Belenenses, 6 points in a row, congrats!

 

[Punkt]

Benfica 1-0 Belenenses
1-0 Simão 69'(penalty)

yes it wasn't a penalty, but Nuno Gomes was pushed in the area in the first half...

ANOTHER WIN! and 3 finals left

 

[bmpv666]

might as well give the title to benfica now...that penalty was a shame

and is Porto getting the last season's League trophy only now?? why do we have to wait almost an entire season to get that trophy? it doesn't make any sense...

 

[Punkt]

every league deliver the trophy in the last game except in Portugal

Very important victory for us, 3 more points! But, taking the risk of repeating myself yet again, it will only matter if we also win the remaining 3 games.

About the penalty: it wasn't, it's obvious. The referee made another two mistakes: penalty on Nuno Gomes and penalty on Lourenço (one for each team). So, we ended up being benefited and Belenenses prejudiced. But, please don't come with hypocrisies! For instance, in the game now, against Marítimo, McCarthy scored in a clear offside position, so...

Also, Estrela in the Superliga again!!! I was there in the stadium and it was an extremely exciting game! 4-2! Congrats, boys!

 

[::shinji::]

Injustice to Belenenses, but I'm still gald for the 3 points. Blame the referees, not Benfica..

Porto guys, don't say too much.. we all saw Benni just score a goal against Maritimo after being at least a meter offside.

 

[SCP19O6]

Benfiquistas, get real, every team is benefited and prejudiced in some games, but this year is way too much in favour of Benfica, it's almost scandalous how obvious it is.
We are in the decisive stage of the season, and Benfica benefited from wrong decisions from the referees, making more 6 (1+3+2) points with that errors in the last 3 games.
It's a pitty that the return of Benfica to the league titles it's in the worst "Pinto da Costa's times" (late 80's, early 90's) kind of way.

BTW, Porto scored a clean goal that was disallowed.

 

[Punkt]

bla bla bla bla bla

:boohoo:

 

[Punkt]

Porto 1-0 Maritimo
1-0 McCarthy 27'

 

[Virgo]

tomorrow's game will be massive for the decision of the championship.

If Sporting doesn't win we can afford to lose against them if we win the last two matches

 

[Parasol]

BTW, Porto scored a clean goal that was disallowed.

1st one was offside...


and i can't even imagine the ambience during the benfica - sporting in 2 weeks

I'm definitely gonna see that game at the stadium. Championship decider and a derby between the old rivals (not us and the nouveau riches ). It's gonna be the most important derby since I can remember.

Sorry but i have to say a couple of things in portuguese...

Épa desculpem lá mas a roubalheira continua prós lados da Luz, já vão três seguidas, já começa a ser demais... já pensaram que as pessoas podem perder a paciência de vez? Eu já começo a perder sinceramente, axo que o melhor era mesmo entregarem a merda das faixas, este campeonato está a ser uma farsa total e já mete nojo ver os jogos do Benfica ultimamente, toda a gente sabe que o arbitro dá sempre uma ajudinha quando as coisas começam a ficar difíceis, eu tinha vergonha se a minha equipa ganha-se assim mas prontos, vocês n se importam de ganhar a qualquer custo... agora so espero que nos 3 jogos que faltam haja insenção a sério pq as coisas ainda podem mudar na liderança, cá estarei pra ver as cenas dos próximos episódios...

Acerca do meu Porto axo ke na 1ª parte fizemos uma das melhores exibições da época mas mais uma vez pecamos na finalização... já sei que o nosso golo é em off-side(apesar de a FIFA dizer que naqueles casos se beneficia quem ataca) mas o golo anulado ao Diego é mais uma vergonha por isso axo ke ninguém se pode queixar... na 2ª parte podiamos ter resolvido o jogo e n se podem falhar penaltis como o que falhamos, mais uma vez viram-se algumas das carências da equipa do FCP em certos aspectos, apesar de estar a jogar melhor e em claro crescendo de forma. Como já disse o Porto ainda é sério candidato se as arbitragens forem isentas nos próximos jogos, só espero é que a vergonha n continue pq ou muito me engano ou lá pros lados da Liga de Clubes o campeão já tá à muito decidido, esperemos que a verdade desportiva n seja mais adulterada.
