Benfica apurou-se para as meias-finais da Youth League

para uma das piores escolas de formação do futebol Português!

Não deu para ver o jogo, nem sequer repetição dos golos...mas as meias vão ter transmissão direta da Eurosport :)

Patrick Vieira
You have to give credit to Benfica – the way they played in the first half and the way they played the second was completely different. They put us under pressure in the second half. We created some chances but football can be cruel if you don't score the second goal. It was a fantastic finish from Seko [Fofana for the opening goal] and in the first half we played some really good football.

In the second we got a little bit tired and Benfica put us under more pressure and it became more difficult for us. But we showed courage and desire to come back and create chances in the last ten minutes and their goalkeeper was fantastic.

João Tralhão
It was two different halves. In the first half City were much better, they were comfortable on the ball and we didn't do what we had set out to do. We had to do a lot of defending and our attacking game wasn't as effective as we'd have liked.

The second half was completely different, we didn't let City play their football. We changed our structure and our attitude. We pressed them better, didn't let them come out. We got the goals and our confidence grew as they became less confident. The team worked hard, ran hard and understood what they had to do to beat a super City side

...em casa dos adversários.
Agora nas meias e com o Real o jogo é onde? Ou finalmente são dois jogos?

a mostrarem aos séniors como se faz!
