🇵🇹 I Went To The World's NICEST Non League Football Stadium!

we are back in Lisbon and I'm sure if

you've seen my channel for a long time

or you know anything about football

you'd know about Benfica and of course

sport in Lisbon as well and what about

when I took you to bellinensis they've

got a really interesting story and the

estadio national the stadium where

Celtic won the European Cup but today in

this video I'm going to be taking you to

a completely random stadium and football

team that you've never heard of before

in this incredibly famous city I'll tell

you in a little second how I decided on

today's game but firstly check out

Lisbon just hit that like button and

subscribe if you're new

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

so it is now currently the evening we've

had a look around Lisbon today and look

we've got our editing Essentials right

now superbok it's got to be done when

you're away but how did I decide on what

game to go to today well look just check

this out while I edit the part of the

video we've already done

um I'll show you why we'll be going to

tomorrow's game so Sunday look from my

vicinity on Sunday Benfica is my closest

game but I wanted to come and see

Benfica anyway with sin Porto on the

channel numerous times actually we've

actually seen sporting a couple of times

as well the last time we were here but

we've never seen Benfica so on Sunday

we'll be completing the Tres Grandes the

big three but look this is today

um I couldn't get up to this match today

and um obviously we've been filming um

the intro to this video that you've

already seen but look if we check out

the games

um for tomorrow my closest one is seven

kilometers away CF Estrella there am

Dora against

UD

oliveirensei in the estadio Jose Gomez

seven kilometers away and I just thought

you know what I'm going to show you guys

a random game in Portugal like I say

it's currently the Friday but the game

is on the Saturday so I'll see you

bright and early tomorrow morning for an

11 o'clock kickoff yeah kickoffs at 11

A.M tomorrow so

um we should get this one up the same

day too don't you just love it all right

see you then

it's the middle of November and I've got

my shorts on in the morning to go to the

football and my sunnies as well don't

you just love it but um yeah it's a

strange one isn't it 11AM kickoff

um but I do love an early kickoff it

means you've got all day to get the

video sorted get it up and uh you can

enjoy the evening I might go and watch

uh I think it's Wolves and Arsenal isn't

it the late game if I can have

everything done and uploaded by then I

can go out and have a Superbook and

watch Arsenal because it's so early the

streets are a bit dead here in Lisbon so

um yeah we need to get on the tube to

train the Metro get to close to where

we're going and get some classic

Portuguese breakfast and coffee

foreign

station yet but I recognize something

here this is the badge of the football

team we're going to see today and look

what a corner is as well the yellow star

CFE a I'll tell you a little bit about

what that means in a sec I'm not sure

what these three are but from the small

bit of research I've done I do recognize

that battery they have these incredible

LED lights look how I take that is red

and now it's green and we can go but

look behind me here I believe this is

the estadio Estrella Amadora that is the

team we're going to see today but I

found the cafe across the street we've

still got about an hour and a half till

kickoff I think so we've got a little

bit of time

for some caffeine

and a cappuccino okay and place it

outside

coffee consumed I'm feeling energized

I've had my pastel de natta as well you

have to have one of those when you come

to Portugal or a few of those at least

but look here we go cfea so Club

football that's the C and the F they

don't really say football club here it

comes before the name it's like

Liverpool Football Club in England or

English or whatever Rangers football

club Celtic Football Club but in

Portugal it's Club football first and

then Estrella which I think means star

which will be the star here and then a

Amador at the part of

um Lisbon's just outside of Lisbon where

we are now

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

how many times have we been in this

situation where things have gone

completely wrong on Vlogs this really

reminds me of my Dublin ground hopping

video which turned out really well in

the end but

during the start of it I was kind of

stuck because it was supposed to be in a

Viva tour video and there was nobody

there that day and so today's game was

supposed to be at the home ground of

this team that I've been introducing you

to today

um I did my intro for yesterday that I

was really really excited to see inside

this strange little Stadium there aren't

too many games on in Portugal today like

I said but there's construction work

going on in here I didn't know why there

was nobody at the billets counter the

ticket counter I'll show you

that's an awesome one because

look billets means tickets in Portuguese

that's similar to like French I think

there's a similar spelling

um but look nobody here

and I was wondering why and it turns out

that there's construction work going on

here so they're playing at the estadio

national where we've been a few times

now for the Celtic video and to see

bellinense sad play as well so oh God

I'm in a bit of a conundrum now do I go

back to the bloody estadio National

where we've been before I really wanted

to see this quirky little ground on the

outskirts of Lisbon

ah what to do what to do

sporting

you Benfica okay

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

there goes Anderson

my uh really nice Uber driver who didn't

speak a lick of English but

um he's put me in a better mood he was a

nice guy however yes I'm not in the best

of moods after today I will be honest

really frustrating come all this way and

think you plan a little video like that

I knew there'd be games on on this

Saturday not too many

um as previously mentioned I think they

only really have games

on like a Sunday I don't know they

obviously do have games on a Saturday as

well but the way the fixtures fell this

weekend there was like none in Lisbon

basically but if it wasn't for the game

being canceled I wouldn't be here right

now

and I did get a message from somebody I

think on Instagram

um it could have been a tweet it could

have been a YouTube comment I can't

remember apparently there's a stadium in

the shadows of this incredible statue of

Christ so we're gonna save the video and

go there ground upping Gods please be

kind you haven't been kind so far so if

you could for the uh for the next

location that'd be incredible but look

at this behind me

so the times I've been to Lisbon I've

never actually been to this incredible

um tourist attraction here that I

suppose a lot of people come to see and

look you have the 25th of April Bridge

there that's the bridge we came across

which I'd have shown you and look

you may be able to see like right in the

center with a shot there kind of bigger

sort of blue building I think that is

the stadium of os bellenensis

um we've been there before

um you can see sort of right on the

waterfront there like let me just zoom

out so I can point like right across the

Waterfront there that is bellem I think

that's where benfico are formed then

also where obviously bellinensis play

now

um the estadio Deluge which is where Ben

FICA play will be through there

somewhere over that Hill I do think so I

don't think you'll really be able to see

it from here

um I wonder if we can see anything else

from where we've been before I'm not

sure I don't think you can see sporting

Stadium either from here a lot of hills

in Lisbon so it stops you from seeing

stuff from like quite far away but

um yeah like I say amazing I've still

never been here until now

I feel really guilty because I can't

remember who sent me the message or left

the comment or whatever so I can't give

him a shout out in the video but a huge

thank you to whoever it was I did see

the message and that is the inspiration

now for this video is to find the uh the

stadium or a studio in the shadows of

Christ

um which I hope is open that's it there

that's the stadium there look at that is

one of Portugal's most famous

attractions for tourists

and there's the stadium

I didn't realize it was that close

Google Maps had four minutes away let's

see if we can get in please please

please let me get him you're not gonna

believe it you're not gonna believe it

oh look at that

wow

what that is amazing there's a little

bar cafe up in there there's only one

thing for it a super box yeah

just uh one place yeah 150 150.

thank you very much

yeah all right it might be 10 47 in the

morning but when you've had a stressful

day and things go your way eventually

then I mean look you've just got to have

a super bark in the sun while you

collect your thoughts

and think about what you're going to

tell people about this club

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

thank you

wow so one of the most incredible things

about this stadium is I mean apart from

The View that you get down there just I

mean look at that Portugal is a stunning

country and obviously Christ that you

can't see just now because of the stand

but the top two tiers in Portugal are

run by the Portuguese league so I feel

like that's sort of like the Premier

League and efl it's the top two tiers

then you go third tier fourth tier fifth

tier etcetera downwards it gets

regionalized as well

um but everything below the second tier

from what I can work out is non-leak

which means that this is a non-league

stadium

Almeida is that almada Almeida almada

the team that play here they are not in

the top two tiers so that makes this

Stadium a non-league stadium have you

ever seen a non-league stadium like this

look at these you've got the seats

you've got the Sun

the incredible views

you got the uh sort of terrorist bit up

there where you can stand or sit with a

super box first thing in the morning

this day turned out all right after all

didn't it look at all these tourists

coming out of the uh the attraction they

don't even know that the world's best

non-league stadium is right there

they're all here seeing Christ but

I should go and see a almada AC as well

we're waiting for our Uber and uh we'll

get back and I'll wrap up this video

what a video it's been ah so they're in

the third division

AC almada have you been to see them play

no no never who do you support

Benfica okay they play tomorrow

back at the hotel now and I've just

edited the parts of the video that

you've already seen up until this point

I actually had a really really good time

in the end I know it was a bit

disappointing that we didn't get to go

to the original stadium and watch a game

there but I think it worked out well

because the game that was supposed to be

on was in a stadium we've been to twice

for two videos before and it was

actually nil nil right up until the 97th

minute when

um Estrella actually scored so um it was

one nil in the 97th minute so I feel

like it may have not been the best game

anyway in a stadium that we've already

been to a couple of times on this

channel but we did get to see what I

think could be the best non-league

stadium in the world the views were just

unreal weren't they down to the water

and then back up to Christ as well

either side that you were looking at the

stadium just absolutely unreal if you

know of any more unique stadiums like

that that seems to be loads in Portugal

and one of the best I've ever seen was

Braga of course

um I know a lot of you have seen that

video that was Unreal um drop any more
