However think of all the scum supporters who would have backed them to win in 90 mins only to concede a 93rd min pen (scored) with 3 mins added time :hehe:

The Bela Guttmann curse is almost 50-years-old, but we will never know exactly what the great Hungarian coach said. The classic, most popular version claims he announced that “not in a hundred years from now will Benfica win a European Cup”, when angrily leaving the club in 1962. That, however, is far from certain. The reason for Guttmann’s abrupt departure from Lisbon was all about the Benfica management’s refusal to pay him a bonus for winning the European Cup twice in a row, since there was no such clause in his contract. Thus Guttmann allegedly sniped that Benfica will never win a European Cup until he was paid his due. Additionally, some say he stated in an interview that no Portuguese team, in 100 years, will manage to win the cup twice in succession like he did.

Stay the f**k away from sides with **** like this going on :o
