Benfica are up against Academica in the taca on Sunday.


Guarda-redes: Quim e Butt;
Defesas: Luís Filipe, Nelson, Luisão, David Luiz, Edcarlos e Léo;
Médios: Petit, Binya, Rui Costa, Nuno Assis;
Avançados: Nuno Gomes, Di Maria e Adu, Cardozo, Bergessio e Mantorras.

i believe i read somewhere that Butt will be starting in net. Hope Mantorras PLAYS!!!

I want to see Mantorras and Adu given a chance in this game

I want them to give moreira a shot in goal. Butt has played some games already.

www.abola.pt says that mantorras and binya are back in the team. Im not sure if they will start though.

Are we taking this game lightly as we did for the other cup? This is the Potuguese Cup and should be respected or is it all about money now? If so should have done better in CL.

Nah, i think we are takin dis seriously. I think we are just bringin in some new subs so they can have some playing time. Like mantorras, i think he will start on the bench

I should know better than to believe any news related to SLB that comes out of most chop media. Which do you guys think we should be paying attention to?

Hope Mantorras and Adu play and do well to smarten up a few most notably Di Maria and Nuno and also give Camacho something to think about.

Any streams available?

2-0 so far Luisao and Cardozo.

2-1 now, frango by Butt

3-1 Cardozo header but it was all about Nuno's cross.

Mantorras comes on for Cardozo... he's gonna get a whole 3 minutes.

Any highlights of the game and did barbosa play?

I didn't catch the game because my net has been down.

Here are some highlights:

Good to see Cardozo on the scoresheet twice, hopefully he can keep building on this.
