In the 2003–04 season, with president Luís Filipe Vieira, Benfica put an end to their silverware drought by winning the Taça de Portugalagainst José Mourinho's Porto. They dedicated the trophy to Miklos Feher, who had died in January 2004. In the following year, Benfica won the league title, eleven years after the previous one, and the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira. 

After that and until 2009, when Benfica won its first Taça da Liga(thus becoming the first club to win all major domestic competitions), they did not win any trophies and finished fourth in the 2007–08 league. In Europe, Benfica had three consecutive appearances in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, with their best result being a quarter-final stage in 2005–06, after beating Manchester United in the decisive group stage encounter and overcoming then European champions Liverpool on 3–0 aggregate.
