FC Porto B beat Benfica B (2-0), matching record tally in 18-club II Liga | OneFootball

FC Porto B ended the season with a 2-0 home win over Benfica B, thanks to goals from Gonçalo Sousa and Duarte Cunha, and should finish in either fifth or sixth place, depending on Leiria’s result tomorrow, having matched the best-ever points tally of the blue and whites since the competition began being played with 18 teams, that is, since 2018/19.

After a very troubled start, the side coached by João Brandão found its rhythm and finished the campaign with the same 51 points achieved in 2022/23. The difference is that this squad is considerably younger. Back then, the average age was 22, and now it is just 19.

In 2015/16, FC Porto B won the Segunda Liga with 86 points, but the championship was contested by 24 teams over 46 matchdays.
