They thrashed Lazio, because the virgin mary aided them. Again I don't believe in the virgin mary but when you see Zambrotta score from a distance of 30 m, something must be wrong. But i must agree that they are progressing. Still i think one day or the other the defense will collapse and then they will be in deep shit.

But apart from that game, Lazio is sure kicking ass.

4 victories and 1 loss! 13 goals in 5 games is not bad. :dio:

Probably the best weve done in years.

that Zarate guy, wtf was he doing in al-sadd or some shit? great player!

"I love you, Benfica"

wow, great pics. i love their motto - "more than a club". not in an obsessive fan kind of way but what they represent as a Catalan club.

our old stadium:

UEFA Cup groups out, and Benfica is in the same group as Kathy's club Galatasaray (along with Hertha Berlin, Metalist something and Olympiakos)!! hopefully Benfica will fuck Galatasaray in the ass and take 1st place, and you guys can finish 2nd

also, awesome picture:

"A temple falls, but the faith continues"
the old stadium, known as "the cathedral" was demolished to make way for our current home, but the spirit is always there :dio:

So yeah, I just found out that Mourinho's kids are in my school.

Shame I don't give a fuck.

Are they anything like their father? And why are they going to school in Switzerland?

International boarding school. And since I don't know shit about Mourinho, I couldn't say.

Mourinho has every right to be such an asshole

Portugal tied with Sweden today. we already lost at home to Denmark. we better get out act together or soon we'll be making some calculations "we can pass if we win by more than 3 goals and X doesn't beat Y by more than 1.. or we can tie but X has to lose by 5 goals..."

the goals from Inter's fucking in the ass of Roma 0-4. great finishing from Ibrahimovic and great goals from outside the box from Obinna and Stankovic.

Inter is doing real good.

Benfica celebrated 5 years in their new stadium in style - scoring their 5000th league goal and receiving their 5.000.000th visitor to the stadium!

the eagle Vitória (Victory) flies a few laps around the stadium before every match, and at the end of each routine lands to complete the club's logo. :wub:

and now, a historical picture to complete a historical day:

Benfica's first XI, i think. notice the fat guy, i bet he was the goalkeeper :lol:

did these men ever imagine that their club would become THE GREATEST CLUB IN THE WORLD? <3 Benfica

in other news:
- Napoli just took 1st place in the Serie A!!
- Liverpool ended Chelsea's steak of 1709 days/86 league games undefeated at Stamford Bridge!!
