SporesBoa e Benfica
A football club in Portugal, known for being the club of the fascist regime in Portugal, that ended in 1974. They are linked to all kind of mafia, they have an ex-president in prison, the current president is known for drug and weapons traffic, and has been convicted in a civil court for THEFT!
Since then, they lost the leadership to another club. Thanks to their connections to the government, media, justice, etc they manage to pass the idea that they only loose because the competition is corrupt.
In 2004/05 they managed to win a league by controlling referees, and "friends" in high positions in the league administration. They did it again in 2009/10. Of course, when playing the Champions League, they only show how ridiculous they are as a team, loosing all away games, scoring ZERO goals.
They're corrupt and a total joke. Please check their website, at vermelhices.com

SporesBoa e Benfica, also know as Benfica, ae linked to all kind of mafia, they have an ex-president in prison, the current president is known for drug and weapons traffic, and has been convicted in a civil court for THEFT! They already tried to get FC Porto out of UEFA competitions but lost. This process was a shameful disgrace, because it was proved that they had no case, and furthermore, they gave an impression of being completely incompetent.
