Samuel Soares, just as José Mourinho had mentioned, was one of the new faces in the starting eleven for Benfica in the match against Chaves. After keeping a clean sheet for the Eagles, the Portuguese goalkeeper shared a post where he reacted positively to Glorioso’s victory.

This was the first match for the number 24 since the Special One took charge of Glorioso, as Mourinho had previously favored Anatoliy Trubin as the starter. However, despite keeping a clean sheet against Chaves, Samu was involved in two less fortunate moments that could have jeopardized the Eagles’ ambitions.

In response to this, the Portugal U21 international took to his Instagram account to react to the victory and apologize for the mistakes made on the pitch. “Important win on the way to the next stage!”, wrote the young Eagles’ goalkeeper.

Finally, the 23-year-old footballer acknowledged he was not at his best and made a promise to all Benfica fans: “We never like to make mistakes, but the important thing is to recognize what needs improvement and keep working”.

Since last season, Samuel Soares has been Benfica’s number 2 option and has had several opportunities. This season, the number 24 - valued at 4 million euros - has played only three matches: two in Liga Portugal Betclic and one in the Portuguese Cup. In the 270 minutes he was between the posts, the goalkeeper recorded two clean sheets and conceded one goal.
