The 2011-12 campaign delivered a second consecutive Primeira Liga title for Porto as Os Dragões, led by new manager Vítor Pereira, defended their crown with immense success, losing only one league match all season. Leading the charge was the sensational forward Hulk, whose 16 league goals and overall performances earned him the league's Best Player award. The season began with silverware in the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira and, despite falling in the Champions League and Europa League, the domestic triumph solidified a new era of dominance and remains a defining chapter in the club's modern history.
