Benfica’s “Curse of Béla Guttmann” Explained | Is it Real, or an Excuse?
In the 1960s, Benfica were taking the world of Football by storm. Under their legendary manager Béla Guttmann, Benfica won the European Cup in 1961 and 1962, defeating the dynasty that was Real Madrid, with their team of young stars like Mario Coluna and Eusebio. After this, an argument with the board led to Béla Guttmann allegedly CURSING Benfica to never win another European Cup for 100 years…

    4:59 Translation: R- What did you think of Italian Football? Guttmann understood our goal and went straight to the point Guttmann-Milan has an incredible team. With great players and lots of knowledge. But I think it's better for Benfica this way. It's better toonly face the Italians in the "final" of the cup. In 2 games of the knockout stage it would be harder to win. In only 1 game Benfica has an advantage. Do you know which it is? Experience. The experience from having played in a European final, for the third time. Milan definitely has the best team in Italy, despite not going too far in the cup but it has been a long time since they reached the decisive game of the cup, and their players despite being incredible and knowledge full have to face this fact (firmly)and because of this im convinced that Benfica is ready, and right now they don't need me, they will be European champions again.

    That final against Sevilla is on par for the biggest robberies in European football. I don't think I've ever been more frustrated at a game than that one. 3 or 4 penalties not given, 2 red cards not given, Beto being allowed to defend penalties at the penalty spot almost... I'd put it top 3 in European football robberies, along with Barça vs Chelsea and Sporting vs Schalke 04 (another one that doesn't get talked a lot, but every Schalke goal was an invalid goal, they scored 4 of them...)

    Felix Brych is the thief's name. What happened with him? He was the chosen referee for the next European supercup. Of all of Benfica's finals, we were only favorites on 2: against AC Milan in the sixties (we were two time European champions and Milan were underdogs) and against Sevilla. On that match against Sevilla, there were 3 penalty not given by Brych, only one of those is debatable. The other two were flagrant and would result in a red card to Fazio at the end of the first half. Again, before that Sevilla final match, an English ref took 3 players out of the final (Enzo Perez, Salvio and Markovic) wrongly. All of them could play as right midfielder. On that final, the right midfielder was Sulejmani (who played very little that season) and he too was taken out of the game because of a horrible tackle from Alberto Moreno on the 15th minute. So, despite all these unbelievable facts, Benfica still dominated the game and should have broken the curse that night in Torino. We will win an European cup again, although it seems pretty far from happen now, but Karma owes us, big time.

    As a Benfiquista, it's frustrating whenever anyone brings up this curse thing, because it's balloney and a really poor excuse for bad investment from the president who never bother to actually put together a team that can rival other European giants. We used to be at the top and now we are a below average team in Europe and it's embarrassing. We are first in the league right now idk how because we're doing the bare minimum, playing absolute shit

    Some facts that weren't in the video: Eusebio's first season with Benfica was the 61/62 season and We won the first european cup without him... Best player ever with our shirt, club legend and the true King and great contributor to the second european cup, though. Another fact is that most Benfiquistas(especially the older ones) have a tremendous respect for Guttmann despite the curse... he gave us the two most important trophies in our history and curses are just supersticion... that being said it's always in the back of our heads.. but personally I prefer to see what he gave us rather than what he said in moment of anger... other thing is Guttmann wasn't the one who went and brought Eusébio to Portugal... there's a whole story about that signing and a dispute with sporting for the player wich with some research would make for a very cool story for a video ;) anyways excelent video and content, keep going!!!

    That was indeed a very well known curse for Racing Avellaneda. Back in the 1960's, arch rivals Independiente frustrated by the success of their neighbours, buried 8 cats in their stadium and they were never able to win another argentinian title nor copa libertadores. Keep in mind that when this happened, Racing were south american champions and argentinian champions as well. After many years of trying to find the dead cats, only recently after the fans once again start digging, could they find the last cat and guess what? Racing were champions again. Go figure...

    As a Benfica fan its sad to see so many finals lost, its sad to be present on the last 2 finals lost and another 2 with youth league. Sadly we only have team to compete in europe league, because we have the problem with clubs with money steal our best players and its difficult to form a good team, we have to develop new players again to compete. Thanks for the video and the support, nice jersey ;)

    We got robbed in the final vs Sevilla. In that year they also tried to get us knocked out against juvenile making us finish the game with 9 players on the field. Our CB was ready to get back on the field and the refs kept him out until the final whistle. Then in the final Moreno recklessly slide tackled sulejmani leaving him with a concussion and didn’t even get a yellow card.
