Costa takes charge of Benfica and Portugal

August​

After Jorge Jesus leaving football due to personal problems, the President of Sport Lisboa e Benfica decided to appoint Hugo Costa, as manager of the club. It is thought that Luís Filipe Vieira met him in the elevator of his apartment and was shocked with the knowledge of Costa about football and the club of his heart, after a short conversation.
Hugo Costa also was named coach of the Portuguese national team, replacing Paulo Bento due to consecutive bad results.

OBJ.: Winning all national competitions, get as far as possible in the Champions League and balance the finances of the club. Briefly, put Benfica in the European highest level, where Benfica has already been.
About Portugal, WIN EVERYTHING!!!

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE​

As well the draw of the CL Group Stage was made, giving me a difficult group with Barcelona, Gladbach and Ajax. But if we play as we been playing and don't lose many chances of scoring, I think we can pass easily, even at first position.
