Two goals, two works of art from the team

The first two goals that led Benfica to victory over Tondela (3-0) on Saturday night, August 23, in Matchday 3 of the Liga Betclic, perfectly reflect the "collective work" emphasized and praised by Bruno Lage after the most recent game played at Estádio da Luz. “It was essential to vary our build-up play, sometimes with two, sometimes with three, also varying the players so that the opponent had no individual references in pressing. And then, knowing how to find the paths to goal”, said the coach. The plays that led to the 1-0 (more than 30 seconds of possession until Ivanovic's lethal shot) and 2-0 (more than 40 seconds of circulation until Aursnes' shot) are eloquent, a hymn to good football.
