Benfica won their ninth Supercopa Candido de Oliveira Football this Wednesday, beating Porto 2-0 at the Aveiro Municipal Stadium.
Returning Argentine Ángel Di Maria’s goal paved the way for the Reds’ victory 13 years later. As a result, the score was reduced to 10 due to the removal of the central defender Pepe (90) of the red card.
The game was interrupted for a few minutes, however, after Porto coach Sergio Conceição refused to leave the field of play for some time after being sent off.
With this triumph, Benfica reaches its ninth Super Cup, equaling Sporting CP in second place in the competition’s history, with the Dragons leading the way with 23 trophies.
