Though that same season it reached the Cup final, initially it struggled to avoid relegation. But in the 2013–14 season Futebol Benfica rose to the top positions. The next year, 2014–15, Futebol Benfica won both the championship and the cup.[http://www.ceroacero.es/edition.php?op=&id_edicao=70880 Cero a cero] Futebol Benfica repeated the feat in 2015–16, winning both the championship and cup again.
