The Legacy
Ronald Koeman took charge of Benfica in 2005-2006 as the club aimed to defend its Primeira Liga title. Simão Sabrosa led the attack alongside Nuno Gomes, while Luisão anchored the defense during a campaign that included a run to the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. Giorgos Karagounis provided experience in midfield as the team navigated a testing schedule. Adidas produced this home shirt, which displayed the PT sponsor logo across the chest. It was a year defined by European nights against Manchester United and Barcelona, keeping the side competitive at the top level of Portuguese football.
Key Moment
Benfica's 2-1 victory over Manchester United in December 2005, which eliminated the English giants from the Champions League group stage.
