This Tuesday, February 25, marks 11 years since the death of one of the most iconic captains in the history of Sport Lisboa e Benfica. On a day marked by immense longing, we remember Mário Coluna, the eternal leader who became a two-time European champion with an eagle on his chest, an emblem for which he also won 10 National Championships and 6 Portuguese Cups. A Sacred Monster... Unforgettable, Mr. Coluna!

José Augusto opened the scoring, António Simões made it solid with the fourth goal and Pérides helped fill the pitch in SL Benfica's biggest ever win against Real Madrid, 5-1 - which was also the meringues' first ever defeat in the European Cup. On February 24, 1965, in the first leg of the quarter-finals of the competition that would evolve into the Champions League, the Estádio da Luz hosted an iconic European night for the Glorioso. The three legends, 60 years later, listened to Emissora Nacional's commentary of the game and relived the magical moments in their own detail. 

Little Genius to many, simply Chalana to others, one of the most remarkable and iconic football players in the centenary history of Sport Lisboa e Benfica. This Monday, February 10, marks the 66th anniversary of the birth of Fernando Chalana, who wore the Manto Sagrado for 13 seasons (1974/75 to 1983/84 and 1987/88 to 1989/90) and left us on August 10, 2022. Forever in our hearts!

On Tuesday, December 24, the European Champions Hall at the Estádio da Luz was decorated to host a Christmas dinner organized by the Benfica Foundation and Casas Benfica, in partnership with Santa Casa da Misericórdia and the Comunidade Vida e Paz. A moment of communion and fraternization - attended by President Rui Costa and the Foundation's CEO, Carlos Moia - which allowed those present to celebrate the festive season together with the Benfiquista Family! In other parts of the country and beyond, where there are Casas Benfica, the initiative's intention to become more and more widespread was also evident this year. See the best images here...

This Saturday, November 30, was a special day for the kids and adults of Arouca whose hearts beat faster for Benfica! On the occasion of the inauguration of the new Casa Benfica facilities in the town, President Rui Costa led a delegation from the club that was welcomed at the Town Hall and received a great deal of affection as they walked through the streets. The Benfica soul in all its splendor on the eve of Arouca-Benfica, matchday 12 of the Liga Betclic.
