Victorious eagle in the league of millionaires

If halfway has already been covered by what was done in Poland, then the truth is that the eagles entered as if they had to run after a breakdown. Intensity, high pressure, very strong reaction to loss and restrained dynamo.

Before the goal, which fell on a dead ball, was a matter of time. There was already a short corner this season, Neres’ serve and Otamendi’s header into the far post. 1-0. And if the opponent showed little to turn around, he still contributed with unthinkable mistakes – just like in the first match, an incorrect pass gave the Reds 2:0. Rafa made it easy. We were in the 40th minute, and two more well-thought-out counter-attacks returned Neres (already trying on a bicycle) to the main role. The first shot to make it 3-0 at half-time.

When everything was settled, the second movement was lower in tone. Gonzalo Ramos and Rafa were still hurt in the accidental collision, and Schmidt had to deal with and see a couple more missed opportunities. The main thing was done. Gold stamp worth over $38 million.

positive and negative
+ David as Goliath
Fourth assist of the season, a beautiful goal, a bicycle kick and much, much more. David Neres threatens to be a great player for Luz, starting off strong on the team with six games, six wins. Schmidt arrived with everything.

– Inattention without prejudice
A couple of Morato’s inattentions in the 2nd half did not hurt the eagle’s game against an opponent with no chances, but deserved Luz’s low bow before the game: a storm of applause from the public to the Ukrainian athletes (and the people).

Arbitration: it was simple to keep it simple
The game and draw took a clear turn very quickly, which made it easier for the French referee to manage the match, who simply had to keep the situation straight and correct the occasional sharp entries with a couple of cards.

Qualification guarantees 38.4 million euros
Benfica made an immediate profit of 38.4 million euros on Tuesday thanks to their Champions League qualification. But the expectation of the leaders of the eagles, like CM reportedly should reach 60 million euros with the transition to the “eighth”.

Benfica looking for help from Horta
Benfica leaders expect Ricardo Horta to strengthen the position of Sp. Braga about his great desire to move to Luz, thus convincing António Salvador to lower the demands that prevented a transfer this summer.

Neres and Rafa guaranteed to win the jackpot
Odysseus – Didn’t make a defense. He was frightened only when he tried the hat.
Gilberto – Breathe in confidence. Safe to defend and ready to attack.
Otamendi – Boss. He did not give chances in the rear and still scored the first goal.
Morato – Regular, but there are losses of balls in formation (71′), which are not noticeable.
Grimaldo – He hit the post with a free kick and made a couple of poisonous canopies.
Florentine – Playing like this, Orsnes will have to fight a lot to get to eleven.
Enzo Fernandez – A machine that recovers balls and easily reaches the opposite zone and creates danger. Almost scored in the 84th minute.
Neres – He considers himself the star of the team, with cool touches on his left foot. Sweet help at 1:0 and a death blow at 3:0. And threatened twice more.
Rafa – The biggest compliment is that now he plays without blackouts, and then he only has to explain his talent. Effective in finishing 2-0.
Joao Mario – This gives security in the movement of the ball.
Gonzalo Ramos – He is both a finisher and a worker. Good help for Neres.
Muse – After five games on the bench, he made his debut for Benfica. Shot at 69 feet.
Weigl – Play at a speed below command…
Diogo Goncalves – This one came to speed up. He gets a place in the squad.
Enrique Araujo – He had a dangerous shot in the 79th minute.
Paulo Bernardo – Added the first minutes of this season.
