COSME DAMIÃO AWARDS

Within the scope of Sport Lisboa e Benfica's anniversary, those who, for their achievements, deserve the Cosme Damião Awards are elected. This year Benfiquistas choose, by an exclusive vote on the Official Site, the winners of 2022. Vote here!

As part of Sport Lisboa e Benfica's 119th anniversary celebrations, the Cosme Damião Awards will be handed out to those who stood out the most in the last year, in a ceremony scheduled for February 28, the date the Club was founded, and which will take place at Aula Magna, in Lisbon.
