Football league season
The 2014 Cape Verdean Football Championships season was the 35th of the competition of the first-tier football in Cape Verde . Its started on 5 April and finished on 31 May, earlier than last year. The tournament was organized by the Federação Caboverdiana de Futebol (Cape Verdean Football Federation, FCF). CS Mindelense won the tenth title and their second in a row.[ 2] They did not participate in the 2015 CAF Champions League .
CS Mindelense was the defending team of the title. A total of 12 clubs participated in the competition, one from each island league and one who won the last season's title. Again more than three clubs shared the same club name starting with Académica numbering four out of twelve. Once again, half of Group B clubs would bear the first club name but only half would bear the name in the knockout stage.
The biggest win was Académico do Porto Novo who scored 5-0 over Sporting Clube from Brava.
The season would have the fewest goals in history after the expansion of the clubs to over ten, fewer than last season. Unlike last season, only two matches had nil points. Week 2 had the lowest scoring. Some matches finished 1-0 or 0-1.
