Benfica coach, Bruno Lage, was happy with the performance and result against Estrela da Amadora in the Portuguese Cup.
To departure
“Almost perfect night? Yes, the most important thing was the performance. We had two objectives: to continue the game with FC Porto, we wanted to play a great game again, and then we wanted to show strength in this new cycle. That's what happened. We had an excellent performance. There was a period there where we could have another quality with the ball, we exaggerated with some passes and we ran a lot behind the result.
Management thinking about Monaco
“A little, yes. There are players who have played more often and we felt this, that after 60 minutes there was an opportunity to see some players in competition. And, in addition, to have the pleasure of launching another boy from our formation. He left us satisfied and fulfilled.”
Arthur Cabral
“It's remembering our first game with Santa Clara. We were losing after 15 minutes and it was the stands that gave us the support to win the game. Arthur was well positioned, with good opportunities, unfortunately he didn't score the goal. I think support is fundamental and the fans understand this.
