The town ( Benevento) has also featured in the Giro D'Italia last week as the end of the day's race tour and the town was splendidly decked out in red and yellow which are the team's colours and the race day commentators mentioned a few times throughout the broadcast that the town have been celebrating Benevento Calcio promotion to Serie B for next season.

The club are surprising doing very well so far this season in serie B - 4th on the table just 4 pts from top spot with plenty games to go ( 16 games)

Real chance of promotion to Serie A which would be unreal and unthinkable at the start of their 1st season in Serie B - lets hope they get close.

Great win again on the weekend! Surely they cant go back to back promotions!! 2nd as of right now, although Hellas Verona play SPAL tonight so that will possibly drop us a notch.

Forza Benevento ! Amazing feat by Benevento - 1st time in serie B and earned promotion to Serie A in their first campaign - I wonder if this has been done by another team in the history of Serie B ??

I'm pretty sure there have been dual promotions, but never in the first season.

Great to see they'll be in Serie A. I wanted them up anyway, but better to not have such a small team like Carpi come up again.
