Former Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur manager Andre Villas-Boas has been elected president of Portuguese football giants FC Porto, ending the 42-year reign of Jorge Nuno Pinto da Costa.
Villas-Boas, 46, obtained 21 489 votes, to just 5 224 for his 86-year-old rival, who had won his previous 15 successive elections to head 'The Dragons'.
"What a historic night... our club is alive and today proved its strength," said Villas-Boas, in a statement issued by Porto.
