Darwin: "We must continue on this path"

HIGHLIGHTS AND STATEMENTS

Twenty goals from Darwin in the Liga Bwin 2021/22! The Benfica forward scored a brace in the 3-0 win over V. Guimarães on matchday 24, at Estádio da Luz, this Sunday, February 27. The Championship's top scorer once again earned the distinction of "Man of The Match".

"It was a good win, I am very happy for the team's commitment. This trophy means a lot to a player, but it is a merit of the work we do. We have to keep our feet on the ground and with humility. As I always say, we all deserve it. We must continue on this path, playing like this and thinking about the next game", commented Darwin in statements to BTV.

Before taking the penalty kick, the Uruguayan international exchanged brief and curious words with Bruno Varela, the opposing goalkeeper.

"He told me he already knew me, and I said we would see when I took the penalty kick. He wanted to make a dinner bet. I scored a goal and now I'm going to claim that dinner", revealed Darwin.

One of the most vibrant and exciting moments of the evening came when Yaremchuk replaced Darwin.

"It is very sad what is happening in his country. We have to give him strength. I got goose bumps! He will have all our support", stressed Darwin.
