Club Spotlight | S.C.U. Torreense

Our CLUB SPOTLIGHT series returns, and our first club of the 2026-27 season is Portugal's S.C.U. TORREENSE. 2nd-tier Torreense shocked the footballing world by winning the Taça de Portugal, defeating the mighty Sporting in extra time. As a result, the small-town club earned Europa League football, despite not competing in the top flight since 1992. David breaks down the club's history and circumstances, its incredible cup run, and its outlook for the Europa League league phase. Cheers to Luís Tralhão!
