The coach won his fifth title at FC Porto.

Coach Sérgio Conceição won the fifth title under FC Porto, defeating Benfica 2-0, in the 42nd edition of the Cândido de Oliveira Super Cup, at the Municipal Stadium of Aveiro.

Four months and twenty-two days after taking the fourth, also against the red (2-1), in the final of the Portuguese Cup, in Coimbra, the 46-year-old coach, born in Ribeira de Frades, rose to the eighth Porto Ranking Square.

Conceição is now with four outstanding coaches, the Portuguese José Maria Pedroto and Fernando Santos, current national coach, the English Bobby Robson and the Hungarian Mihaly Siska.

Completing his fourth season at Dragão, in an adventure that began in 2017/18, the Portuguese coach now has two Super Cups, two championships and a Portuguese Cup.

Conceição started with the conquest of the I League (2017/18), then denying Benfica the penta, he stayed in the Super Cup in 2018/19, with a 3-1 against Aves, in Aveiro, and, last season, came to the tripe.

The dragons won the championship with five points more than the eagles, after having been seven behind, already in the round of 16, and, in the Cup final, they also beat the great rival, 2-1, in Coimbra, already without public.

The fourth season started a bit hectic, with many points lost in the championship, translated into a third place, four points from Sporting and two from Benfica, but, in other competitions, the dragons have done well.

The Blue and Whites managed to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League, being the only team outside of the European “top 5” at this stage of the competition, they are also in the “knockout stages” of the Portuguese Cup and in the four finalists of the League Cup. .

With the conquest of Aveiro, it was already guaranteed that the season will not end in blank, and the next goal is the League Cup, which FC Porto never took away. The final four is between January 19 and 23, 2021, in Leiria, and the “dragons” play in the “socks” with Sporting.
