cool I wanna see Benfica win

Sorry I can't watch this match, But I'll surely record it so that I can see it after Atletico Madrid Vs. Real Madrid. Porto has always been my favourite team in Portugal.

0-2. In a very even game, Nuno Gomes scored both in two defensive errors much thanks to a completely clueless Bosingwa. Unsurprisingly, Bruno Alves was also a complete idiot by heading Nuno Gomes for no reason at all, was well sent off.

Braga leads the table now, followed by Nacional. We're third but Sporting could overtake us by winning tomorrow. Benfica is one point behind us.

It's not a problem with the league, thing is Braga has been one hell of a team for the past 7-8 months, they were very very unlucky to get knocked out by Red Star in the UEFA Cup. They've been losing important players over and over again, yet it never gets reflected in their results. Their defence is great, just conceded their first goal in this round - the left-back Jorge Luiz is most likely the best in his position in the entire league.

I saw them playing in Belgrade on Stadion Marakane and it was a pretty even match between the two teams. It ended up in a draw 0-0, But Red Star scored a away goal in Portugal and got through because of that..

I thought that the Serbian league was pretty weak, Even though Red Star always has been my favourite team in Serbia & Montenegro. I thought they would be out of the UEFA Cup after the away match in Portugal, But no, They survived - That's a pretty nice effort.

I didn't saw the first leg but saw the second: Red Star scored a lucky goal in the first half and were totally dominated the entire game. Not to take away the merit of Red Star, the keeper in particular did an awesome game, and they were effective with their chances. It is true that in theory our league should be stronger than the serbian and Braga should have done enough to go through. But that doesn't prove anything about the quality of the league, or do you think the spanish league is weak since Getafe was the leader?

Red Star was the better team in Belgrade even though it was even. They did not score a goal, And Braga managed to get a tie.

I would rather like to say that Getafe is a very good team so far, They've really got some quality players that's better than the rest of the squad. It's also pretty nice to see that Red Stars goalkeeper was very good in Portugal, At the moment, He's only a talented goalkeeper that's playing in the Serbian U-21 team. I also think that the Serbian teams has become way stronger in Europe the last 3 years, Just take a look at Partizan's great appereances in the CL even though they did not get through, They've got some very good players for sure.

Just to add something to Getafe: They've won against Atletico Madrid away and also home against Valencia, That's very good, Indeed
