Lisbon's "Benfica" started the season poorly.

In the first match of the Portuguese league season, Roger Schmidt's team lost 0:2 to the "Famalicao" players.

Goals from Sorriso and Zaydou Youssoufo determined "Famalicao's" victory.

The main competitors for the title, "Sporting" and "Porto," celebrated victories in the first round. The only team that did not fight for a win was "Braga," which drew 1:1 with "Estrela Amadora."
