Benfica receives awards

Benfica was honored with two awards related to the 2024/25 season, which were delivered after being postponed during the Kick-Off of the professional competitions, due to mourning in Portuguese football for the deaths of Diogo Jota and André Silva.

Sílvio Cervan, vice-president of SL Benfica, received the awards, one of which was for the election of Estádio da Luz as the best venue in the Liga Betclic.

In a vote carried out by delegates and the Match Center of Liga Portugal, items such as accessibility, pre- and post-match activities, media spaces, sound installation, quality of services provided to visiting teams, television product, advertising, and cleanliness were evaluated.

The Cathedral achieved an average score of 4.97 throughout the season, being honored with the Stadium Award for the third year in a row.

Benfica B was also recognized with the Neno - Fair Play Award, having received the most positive evaluations in the 34 rounds of Liga 2. Yellow and red cards, respect for opponents and referees, as well as the behavior of the public and sports agents, were elements taken into account in the evaluation of the match delegates.

As in 2023/24, the Eagles received this award for their disciplinary performance in the competition.
