The Legacy

Graeme Souness managed Benfica in 1998-1999, his second season in charge after arriving from Torino. The side finished third in the Primeira Liga, qualifying for the UEFA Cup. Adidas produced this home shirt, featuring the Ford sponsor across the chest. Nuno Gomes provided a consistent goal threat throughout the campaign, while João Pinto continued to captain the attacking efforts. Paulo Madeira anchored the defensive line during a year defined by the club's attempt to close the gap on their rivals at the top of the table.
