Away jersey Copa Benfica Lisbonne 1968

Benfica practically defined the European Cup in the 1960s, and when their fine team defeated Italian champions Juventus in the semi-finals of the
1967-68 campaign, it meant a fifth European Cup final appearance of the decade for the Lisbon giants.
Their opponents at Wembley were Manchester United, a talented but inexperienced team at this rarefied level. The English club took the lead in the second half
before Jaime Graça equalized for Benfica with 15 minutes remaining. A great chance to win the Cup was squandered in the dying moments as Eusébio
ran clear only to be brilliantly blocked by United goalkeeper Stepney.
Extra time was a disappointment for Eagles as Manchester United scored three unanswered goals to win the tournament for the first time.
