We can continue to lament what was lost or believe in what we still have to gain. We choose the future, the work and Benfica. And I promise you one thing: there will never be a lack of leadership, there will never be a lack of conviction and there will never, never be a lack of Benfica soul because Benfica is more than a club, it is the responsibility of a lifetime, a mission and this mission begins today. For a united Benfica, for a respected Benfica and a Benfica that dreams again of its own greatness, just like that group of 28 young people who in 1904 believed that they could believe in something bigger than them. For Benfica Above All, for Sport Lisboa and Benfica. Long live the Glorious".
