Benfica won the Portuguese Cup for a record 26th time and made its 11th double (record – previously in 2014) by also winning the League.
Vitória de Guimarães qualified for the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League by reaching the final, as Benfica had already qualified for the UEFA Champions League via their league result. As Benfica won the 2016–17 Primeira Liga, Vitória de Guimarães will play against them in the 2017 Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira as the Taça de Portugal representative.
The final was broadcast in Portugal on television by RTP (on RTP1), who holds the rights for several Portuguese Football Federation properties (which includes the Taça de Portugal final, the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira and the Portugal national football team exhibition matches), and by SportTV (on SportTV 1) who holds the rights to broadcast the whole Taça de Portugal.
