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, leveling it at 3-3 and going through on away goals to 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 final of the competition. That victory further 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 across five matches between the two clubs. The most emphatic result came in the league, when FC Porto thrashed Benfica 5-0 at the Estádio do Dragão, in one of the most iconic matches of that Liga season.
