Benfica wins 11th Eusébio Cup

MATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Benfica won this Tuesday, at Estádio da Luz, the Eusébio Cup, beating Newcastle by 3-2. Gonçalo Ramos, Grimaldo and Henrique Araújo scored for the Reds, who won a trophy that had eluded them since 2012.

Fantastic atmosphere in a late afternoon full of Mystique. The Benfiquistas attended in large numbers to honor King Eusébio and to watch for the first time, at the Luz Stadium, the 2022/23 edition of Benfica.

Odysseas, Gilberto, Otamendi, Morato, Grimaldo, Florentino, Enzo, João Mário, Rafa and Gonçalo Ramos, were the eleven players chosen by Roger Schmidt to start the match against the English side.
