Leixões Sport Club, commonly known as Leixões (Portuguese pronunciation: playing in lower leagues.
Leixões won the 1960–61 Taça de Portugal.
History
Leixões Sport Club was founded in 1907, making them one of Portugal's oldest
Present in the top-flight since 1959–60, Leixões were relegated on goal difference in the 1976–77 season.[6] Apart from the 1988–89 season,[7] Leixões did not play in the top-flight again until 2007.
In 2002, Leixões beat
In 2004, they just avoided relegation back to Division Two and finished 14th. A year later, they battled to finish seventh in the league. Finally in 2006, they nearly reached the top-flight Primeira Liga, losing out to Desportivo das Aves in the promotion chase by finishing third, two points behind Aves. Third place used to merit a promotion, but due to a re-construction to all leagues, it meant only the top two would go up (Beira-Mar as champions and Aves as runners-up). Finally, in 2007, they gained promotion to the Liga, 18 years after their relegation. During this stint, which lasted three seasons, their best result was a sixth-place finish in 2008–09. Their last match in the Primeira Liga was a 1–0 away loss to Olhanense on 2 May 2010.
Stadium
Leixões' home ground, the Estádio do Mar, was inaugurated on 1 January 1964 with a match against Benfica, who won 4–0.[8]
