Africa-Press – Angola. Benfica beat Maccabi Haifa from Telaviv by 2-0 on Tuesday night, at Estádio da Luz, in Lisbon – Portugal, in the opening round of group H in the 2022-2023 edition of the European Champion Clubs’ League.
With goals from Spanish winger Grimaldo, elected in the end the “Man of the match”, and midfielder Rafa, German Roger Schimdt’s team dominated and turned on all the lights for the victory that guarantees them the lead with three points, equal with the Paris Saint German (PSG).
The French team of Neymar, Mbappe and Messi won 2-1 against Juventus of Italy.
Still on the game at Estádio da Luz, in Lisbon, an artistic note to Grimaldo’s goal, a shot placed in the upper right corner, which with a ruler and square, did not give the opposing goalkeeper a chance. The goalkeeper even flew, but not even the help of the wings would stop the accurate “shot” of the left-handed Gri.
At the end of the game, the Benfica coach, who has won 10 consecutive games, in a dream start, kept his speech cautious, without euphoria or triumphalism.
The rotation of the squad continues to be a note of the coach, despite doing it occasionally in some positions without affecting the base 11 and the team’s game ideas.
Next Saturday, the team plays for the Portuguese championship and on the following Wednesday it travels to Turin, Italy, where it will face Juventus in the second round of the Champions League.
