Vítor Baía: “Some teams win trophies, others become immortal” | OneFootball

23 years ago, FC Porto lifted the UEFA Cup by beating Celtic 3-2 in Seville after extra time. Vítor Baía, former goalkeeper of the blue-and-white club, made a point of marking the achievement on social media.

“There are victories that stay in the record books. And there are others that stay in a club’s soul forever. Winning the UEFA Cup in 2003 was much more than a title. It was the beginning of a golden era, built on ambition, unity, talent and an unshakable belief that together we could conquer the world,” he began by writing.

“The years have passed… but that night is still alive in all of us. Because there are teams that win trophies. And there are teams that become eternal,” concluded the former Portugal international, who was at the Estádio do Dragão for the last match of the season, in FC Porto’s 1-0 win over Santa Clara, alongside João Pinto.
