Biggest defeatPorto 4–0 Benfica
(23 January 2001)

The 2000–01 season was Sport Lisboa e Benfica's 97th season in existence, and the club's 67th consecutive season in the Primeira Liga. It ran from 1 July 2000 to 30 June 2001. Benfica competed domestically in the Primeira Liga and the Taça de Portugal. The club also participated in the UEFA Cup, by virtue of finishing third in that tournament the previous season.

The season is the worst in Benfica's illustrious history since the start of the Primeira Liga during

João Pinto, the longest-serving player on the club, and the incumbent captain. This decision was poorly received by the fans, who criticized Heynckes and the president for the move. Both would leave the club in the following months. In the league campaign, the team lacked balance year-round and only briefly entered the league race, spending all but three weeks out the top three. Even the successful partnership of Pierre van Hooijdonk and João Tomás, with 36 goals between them, did not prevent the club from finishing in sixth place, 23 points behind winner Boavista. Consequently, Benfica missed out on UEFA competitions for the first time in 41 years (since the 1959–60 season
).

Season summary

Pre-season

Preparations for a new Benfica season started in late-May 2000. Manager

Amaral,[6] but indulged on Marchena, Meira and Van Hooijdonk. The last was intended to replace Nuno Gomes, who moved to Fiorentina after a successful run at Euro 2000.[7][8] All of this spending happened in spite of club-wide financial difficulties, from missed salaries for Michael Thomas,[9] to the basketball section of the club going months without pay.[10]

The pre-season started on 7 July, with a schedule of 8 games. It included a match celebrating the 50th anniversary of Olympique Lyon, and the Carlsberg Belfast Challenge against Linfield and Liverpool.[11] Benfica ended the pre-season on 11 August, with a draw against Aston Villa.[12][13]

August–October

Benfica started their 2000–01 Primeira Liga campaign on the road in a Clássico match against FC Porto, on 19 August 2000.[14] João Marcelino stated that Porto "...had some luck in the way they obtained their first goal (shot from Alenichev deflected off Calado and betrayed Enke)...", allowing them to manage the lead until the end.[15] Benfica's first home game was against Beira-Mar on 27 August. At ten minutes into the second half of that game, Maniche's goal put Benfica up 3–0, setting them up for victory.[16]

September began for Benfica with a visit to

stoppage time.[17] Benfica started their European season on 14 September in Sweden, with a 1–2 loss to host Halmstad.[18] Benfica won their second home game of the season, on 18 September, against Estrela da Amadora, thanks to two goals scored by Van Hooijdonk in consecutive minutes near the end of regulation time.[19] In the post-match interview, following weeks of fan pressure, club manager Heynckes lost his calm and proclaimed: "I can't take this club anymore. If they want me gone, I'll leave tomorrow."[20][21] He was immediately let go, and replaced with 37-year-old José Mourinho. Former player Mozer joined him as assistant.[22][23] It was Mourinho's first time as manager, having previously worked only as an interpreter for Bobby Robson and Louis van Gaal.[24] His first game as manager was on the road against Boavista, in which his team lost 0–1 to a goal from ex-Benfica player Duda.[25] The second leg of the UEFA Cup was a home game played on 28 September at the Estádio da Luz. It ended in a 2–2 draw and they were eliminated from the tournament – a result reminiscent of their 1997–98 season.[26]

Benfica started October with a home game against Braga.[14] The visitors took the lead in the first half, but João Tomás and Van Hooijdonk responded with a goal each, reversing the score in the second half. However, Braga went on to equalize with a last-minute goal, costing Benfica two points.[27] On 15 October, Benfica won its third league game of the season by defeating Belenenses onenil behind Marchena's goal.[28] The team played Paços de Ferreira on the 21st, dropping two points in a 0–0 draw.[29] Benfica played their last game of the month against Campomaiorense on the 29th, winning with a double from João Tomás, scored within a space of ten minutes from each other.[30] They finished the month in seventh place on the league table, nine points behind leader Porto.

November–February

Benfica faced Marítimo in an away game at the beginning of November. They lost 0–3, to a hat-trick from Lagorio.[31] Without a single road game victory, the team dropped to tenth in the league's standings.[32] They hosted Farense in the second week of November and won 2–1. Van Hooijdonk and João Tomás scored a goal each, within a 4-minute interval just before the final whistle, to give their team the three points.[33] On 18 November, Benfica played Vitória de Guimarães on the road. They took the lead near the end of the first half, with a goal from Chano. The second half saw three additional goals, all by João Tomás. It was their first win as visitors, and they climbed to sixth place in the standings.[34] Benfica played their last game of the month, on the 26th, at the Taça de Portugal against Campomaiorense.[35] This fourth round match was won thanks to a late goal by Sabry.[36]

Benfica started December with a

Milinkovic put the Ribatejo side in the lead, resulting in the fourth loss in seven matches in away games for Benfica.[43] In the last match of the year 2000, Benfica met a struggling Gil Vicente, who were at the bottom of the Primeira Liga standings.[37] Unable to unlock the 0–0 draw, the club suffered their eighth winless league game of the season.[44]

Early in January, Benfica played away from home, at

Fernando Santos' team – in the best performance of the season – completely demolished a Benfica that never entered the game..."[51] Benfica's last game of the month was played on the road on the 29th, against the Aveiro side, Beira-Mar.[52] The match ended with a 3–1 win for Benfica, after another double for Van Hooijdonk. João Tomás also got on the score sheet.[53]

On 4 February, the team beat União de Leiria at home by 3 goals to 2.

Roger and Van Hooijdonk increased their lead by two goals, until Nuno Valente settled the final score.[54] With this win, Benfica climbed to second place the league, now only five points behind leader Boavista.[55] On the 16th, Benfica played Estrela da Amadora away from home.[52] The game ended with a 2–1 victory for Benfica. Along with Boavista's loss in Braga, this further reduced Benfica's separation from the league leader.[56] Benfica played their last match of February on the 25th against Boavista.[52] Benfica had an opportunity to take the top place in the league table with a victory in that game, but they were unsuccessful at breaking the 0–0 draw. Van Hooijdonk had the best chance in the 78th minute, but his attempt struck the goalpost.[57]

March–May

Benfica began March with an away game in Braga.[52] They lost 3–1 in their first league loss since December. They dropped to fourth place in the standings.[58] On the following Saturday, Benfica visited Belenenses and lost for a second time in a row.[59] A week later, Benfica received Paços de Ferreira at home.[52] The match ended with a 3–2 win for the visitors and Benfica dropped to fifth place. They were now eleven points behind leader Boavista.[60] In the last game of March, Benfica faced Campomaiorense on the road.[61] With a 1–1 draw, the team avoided losing all of their matches in March. However, their need to get points was aggravated, especially if they wanted to qualify for the European competitions.[62]

In April, Benfica opened at home against Marítimo, with a squad composed mainly of reserve players.

Lions' best result against Benfica since the 1986–87 season.[66]

On 4 May, Benfica played Alverca at home, where they lost 0–2, and in the writing of João Querido Manhã for Record, the fans "burst into protests at the end, after they lost patience with the errors, passivity and lack of talent of the whole team.".[67] On 13 May, Benfica went to Adelino Ribeiro Novo to face Gil Vicente.[61] The game ended in a 3–0 defeat – their tenth loss within the league, matching their previous record in the 1996–97 season. As a result, the club was overtaken by Belenenses in the league table.[68] A week later, Benfica played host to Salgueiros in Da Luz. A final score of 1–1 saved Benfica from a record fourth straight loss, and gave the Porto-based side their first point all season against a top 7 team.[69] Benfica played the last game of the season against Desportivo de Aves on the road.[61] At one point in the game, the team was losing three-nil, but managed to equalize and finish with a four-all draw.[70] Toni stated that "Everyone did not do their best to avoid that a historic club slipped into a position that is not accustomed."[71] Benfica finished in a record-breaking sixth place after the 34-game season with a tally of 15 wins, 9 draws and 10 losses that, together, summed up to 54 points. They were ninth-lowest league-wide in goals conceded – 44 in all. On the plus side, they were fifth best in the league at goal-scoring, with a total of 54 goals.[72] Consequently, Benfica missed out on UEFA competitions for the first time in 41 years (since the 1959–60 season).[20] Van Hooijdonk was the second most productive player in the Primeira Liga with 19 goals.[73]
