Enzo Barrenechea revealed that he prefers to play in the number 6 position. The Benfica midfielder was in the starting lineup during Benfica's visit to Vitória SC in Guimarães. At the end of the match, which ended with a final score of 3-0, he spoke to Sporttv’s microphones in the usual flash interview.

"The most important thing is the victory. The first half was very hard-fought, but we did a great job in the second half", Enzo Barrenechea began by explaining. It’s worth remembering that, despite the 3-0 score at the end of the match, the first 45 minutes ended goalless.

The Benfica midfielder continued, explaining what changed after returning from the locker room: "We corrected some mistakes, we came out with a winning mentality in the second half. We knew it was going to be a tough match, away, with their fans".

"We did our job and achieved a great victory. We hope to keep going like this", Enzo Barrenechea added. The Benfica midfielder, who was named man of the match, has been a regular starter under José Mourinho, who now turns his attention to the Champions League.

To conclude, Enzo Barrenechea was asked where he feels most comfortable playing on the pitch. The player, who has been very important in maintaining Benfica’s balance, can play as a number 8 or as a defensive midfielder: "I play where the coach tells me. I feel more comfortable playing as a 6".
