American Soccer Fan Experiences BEST STADIUM in Portugal - Benfica v Santa Clara

Everyone knows Benfica is one of Portugal's biggest, most successful football clubs. So as an American soccer fan traveling in Lisbon, I could NOT miss out on their Primeira Liga match vs Santa Clara. Little did I know I would be entering a world bathed in red, complete with a soaring eagle, hypnotic light show, striking stadium architecture, and a 5 GOAL THRILLER of a game!
The Estadio da Luz (Stadium of Light) has been one of Europe's most iconic stadiums and I've wanted to visit ever since I watched EURO 2004, which was hosted in Portugal. Between the beautiful stadium, intensely passionate fans, and high quality footballers on the pitch, this was a night to remember!
Thank you to Claudio, Goncalo, and Rodrigo for welcoming me and making me feel comfortable! Thank you to whoever sold my ticket for 23 euros (3 rows from the field!!!), and thank you to Angel DiMaria for a beautiful golazo that I will always cherish.
BEN-FI-CA!!!!

If you had seen the old stadium (Estádio da Luz) you would have been amazed, the full stadium held 120,000 people, every time there was a dangerous move or a goal from Benfica you could feel the floor in the stands shaking, I went there for the first time when I was a child, I was 9 years old and I even got goosebumps, I went to see Benfica-Porto with the stadium completely full, it was emotional, I had tears of joy at seeing my favorite team play against their biggest rival in a game counting towards the title of champion .

[@PtmMiguel]

It was known as the hell of Luz, Opposing teams trembled just hearing the fans sing and cheer for Benfica.

CD Santa Clara is from the Azores. On the island of Sao Miguel. They have a long history and have played in the top flight several times as well as played in European competition.

Won the second league the next year 23/24 and returned to the top flight this season 24/25.

Santa Clara actually was a satellite club of Benfica for a long time, but initially it was founded with the sponsorship of Benfica, who donated the first jerseys and equipment, which is why it has the same shield as with Benfica. One of those founders was by great-grandfather.
