v Superliga week 29 Match statistics SL Benfica's record at home to U. Leiria: 7-3-1 SL Benfica's biggest home win to U.Leiria: 4-0 (1995/96) U. Leiria's biggest away win to SL Benfica: 0-2 (2001/02) Typical result: 0-0 (happened 2 times) From the last 10 games: SL Benfica scored 18 goals, suffered 8
Leiria going thru bad times, yesterday for I understand the referee had a lot to do with it, but I also hear on the news it was the worse game played in the Superliga this season
They also feature the crappiest foreign player in the Superliga: Conehead striker Krpan if this guy fell out of bed he'd probably miss the floor. completely useless
Last year the goal scorers were Douala (twice) and Luis Filipe in the 3-3 draw at Leiria. This year it was Fangueiro who scored in Leiria's 1-0 win. Believe me. Baldy can't hit the broad side of a barn.
LFV will missed the Saturday night game, his going to be in Germany along with ex European cup champions Eusebio and Right wing Jose Augusto today the coach of the women's national team http://www.record.pt/noticia.asp?id=669523&idCanal=11
Sporting vs Newcastle a game for the semi-finals only sold of today 15,000 tickets and not more then 30,000 are expected, look who's talking www.ojogo.pt
Let's all hope Leiria wins against Benfica, the clubs is going through rough times lets give'em some support. Forca Leiria!
This thred just shows that Benfica is the biggest club, a Portista a Largato and Barcarrense all worried about Benfica, worry about your own club!

What more help? Throughout the season Benfica by far has been the team most benefited by the CD, and referees, and you want more. That's freaking hilarious. The only way Benfica will win is with a little help from the league.
I don't have to go back any further then this weekend. The comments that caceteiro made this weekend would definetely bring a suspension to any other SL team.
No it wouldn't, we all hear worse things coming from other people, and they don't get suspended. Why should Petit? Anyways, players have to give flash interviews, sometimes they say things they shouldn't, but with all the acusations going on, Petit spoke his mind. Was he wrong to say that, sure, but hey, he apoligized, the league is fine with it, case closed. Everyone has moved on, except you.
So by your assement of the situation, if a player apoligizes on the field he shouldn't get a yellow or a red card. People need to be responsible for the actions or words they choose, and assume the the responsibilities for them. We in the real world live by this rule! So why are you excusing his actions? Most impotant is the league needs to be unbiased on the way they dish out the penalties for such offenses.
Where did I say he shouldn't be suspended? I said the league is fine with it, move on. If the league suspended him, fine, I'm just saying than many others should be suspended too if Petit were suspended. The league isn't being biased, they feel Petit doesn't deserve a suspension, but if you have such a big problem with it, write to the league and get Petit suspended. It's funny seeing a Sporting fan complain about Benfica supposedly being "helped", I can imagine the fans of the smaller clubs laughing at this.
