Primeira Liga (English Version)


The Primeira Liga (Portuguese pronunciation: [pɾiˈmejɾɐ ˈliɣɐ]), formerly called Primeira Divisão, currently named Liga ZON Sagres after their main sponsors, is the top professional association football division of the Portuguese football league system. It has a European ranking of 4th by UEFA's ranking of 2012 and a World ranking of 4th by IFFHS's ranking of 2011. The Liga ZON Sagres is presently contested by 16 clubs each season, but only five of them have won the title. Currently going into its 78th edition (counting four provisional championships in the 1930s), the competition is dominated by the nicknamed "Big Three" (Sport Lisboa e Benfica, Futebol Clube do Porto, and Sporting Clube de Portugal), who have a total of 75 titles, with Clube de Futebol "Os Belenenses" and Boavista Futebol Clube winning the other two.

[edit]History

Before the Portuguese football reform of 1938, an experimental competition on a round-basis was already being held — the Primeira Liga(Premier League) and the winners of that competition were named "League champions". Despite that, a Portuguese Championship in a knock-out cup format was the most popular and defined thePortuguese champion.
Then, with the reform, a round-robin basis competition was implemented as the most important of the calendar and began defining the Portuguese champion. From 1938–2000, the nameCampeonato Nacional da Primeira Divisão (National Championship of the First Division), or just Primeira Divisão (First Division), was used. When the Portuguese League for Professional Footballtook control of the two nationwide leagues in 1999, it was renamed Campeonato Nacional da Primeira Liga (Premier League National Championship), or simply Primeira Liga (Premier League).

[edit]Big Three

"The Big Three" (Portuguese: Os Três Grandes) is a nickname for the three most powerful sports clubs in Portugal. With the exception of Belenenses in 1945-46 and Boavista in 2000-01, only three clubs have won the Primeira Liga title - SL Benfica (thirty-two times), FC Porto (Twenty-six) and Sporting CP (eighteen times). This three clubs generally end up sharing the top three positions, appearing more frequently in UEFA competitions.
These clubs dominate Portuguese football so it's normal to support any of these teams as a "first club". The majority of the fans support one of "The Big Three", with a local team probably coming afterwards (or in some cases not coming at all). The big three have the highest average attendance ratings every season in Portugal, while the other teams, lacking support from the locals (with the exception of Vitória de Guimarães and Braga, which are the 4th or 5th team with the most support), have suffered from weak attendances due in part to the big three's monopoly. The lack of support for local teams is considered to be one of the main reasons why Portuguese Football registers one of the worst attendance ratings in European Football's best championships, alongside the broadcast of almost all the games in television. In other sports, the rivalry between the big clubs is also considerable and it usually leads to arguments between the fans and players.
Benfica is the club with most Championship, Cup and League Cup titles, and the most Domestic titles won. Porto is the club with most Portuguese SuperCups and International titles won, as well as, the team with most titles won overall. Sporting holds the third place when it comes to the most Championships titles and Cups titles won. Benfica is the only Portuguese club to have won two consecutive European Cup titles, reaching 8 European finals: 7 European Cups and 1 UEFA Cup. Porto is the only Portuguese club to have won any European Competition (excluding the Intertoto Cup) since 1987, gathering a total of 2 European Cup/UEFA Champions League, 2 UEFA Cup/Europa League, 1 European Super Cup and 2 Intercontinental Cups, and was runners-up in 1 European Cup Winner's Cup and 3 UEFA Super Cups. Sporting won 1 European Cup Winner's Cup and was runners-up in 1 UEFA Cup. Apart from the big three, Braga won the last Intertoto Cup and was runners-up in 1 Europa League.

[edit]

Galp Energia acquired the naming rights to the league in 2002, titling the division SuperLiga Galp Energia. A four year deal with the Austrian sports betting web portal bwin was announced on 18 August 2005 amid questioning by the other gambling authorities in Portugal (the Santa Casa da Misericórdia and the Portuguese Casinos Association), who claimed to hold the exclusive rights to legal gambling games in Portuguese national territory. After holding the name Liga betandwin.com for the 2005–06 season,[1] the name was changed to BWINLIGA in July 2006.[2] From the2008–09 season, the league has been be named Liga Sagres due to sponsorship from Sagres beer. In 2010, they renewed the sponsorship from Sagres, but also got the sponsorship from ZON Multimédia, the leading pay-TV services provider.

[edit]Competition

From the 2006–07 season on, there are 16 clubs in the Portuguese Liga, down from 18 in the previous seasons. During the course of a season, each club plays all teams twice — once at their home stadium and once at their opponent's — for a total of 30 games. At the end of each season, the two lowest placed teams are relegated to the Liga de Honra, and the top two teams from Liga de Honra are promoted to the Primeira Liga.

[edit]Attendance

Since the beginning of the league, there are three clubs with an attendance much higher than the others: Benfica, Porto and Sporting CP. They have also the biggest stadiums in Portugal, with more than 50,000 seats. Other clubs, such as Vitória de Guimarães and Sporting de Braga, also have good attendances. Académica de Coimbra, Vitória de Setúbal, Boavista, Belenenses, andMarítimo are historical clubs, from the biggest Portuguese cities, and have also many supporters. However, they do not have big attendances nowadays. Their stadiums have between 10,000 and 30,000 seats.

  • (1) Porto saw six points subtracted in the Apito Dourado bribery allegations, reducing their 20-point lead (total 75 points) to 14. But on May 2011, the Central Administrative Court of the South of Portugal ruled that decision, taken in 2008 on a controversial meeting made by the Justice Council of the Portuguese Football Federation, as being "inexistent". The Portuguese Football Federation has announced it would appeal from this decision the Administrative Supreme Court.
