Two weeks after going to the Luz to be crowned national champions, FC Porto returned to the same stage where they had been happy and managed to overturn a tie that had been 0-2, finishing it at 3-3 thanks to the away-goals advantage, in the Portuguese Cup.
On that occasion, the Porto side beat Benfica 2-1 in the second leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals at the Estádio da Luz, securing qualification for the competition’s final. That victory reinforced a clearly favorable run for FC Porto against their Lisbon rivals in 2010/11.
That season was also marked by an overall record of 12-4 in five matches between the two clubs. The heaviest result came in the league, when FC Porto thrashed Benfica 5-0 at the Estádio do Dragão, in one of the most emblematic matches of that Liga campaign.
