Sport Lisboa and Benfica was founded
on the 28th of February 1904, after a morning training session, in
Belém, when a meeting was held at Fármacia Franco. Benfica is one of the
"big three" clubs in Portugal that have never been relegated from
Primeira Liga.
Since 2003, their home ground has been
Estádio da Luz, which replaced the larger, original one, built in 1954. Benfica is
the most supported Portuguese club and the European
club with the highest percentage of supporters in its own country,
having over 230,000 members and an estimated 14 million supporters
worldwide.
