Benfica boss on brink of title wins league award | OneFootball

With the path to a sixth straight title clearly in sight, Benfica’s women’s team are preparing to head into the final stretch of the Liga BPI with ambition and confidence. The Eagles lead the competition unbeaten after 15 matchdays, and, thanks to that run, the Reds received an award from the league.

In the middle of a demanding season, Benfica once again saw their work recognised. The coaching staff led by Ivan Baptista was named the best of the month of March in the Liga BPI, in a vote carried out by the competition’s own coaches.

The award was presented in Seixal after another training session, and the coach made a point of stressing that the merit is not individual. In front of Ana Teixeira, Liga BPI ambassador, the Glorioso manager was keen to share the honour with all the members of his staff.

This recognition comes at a decisive stage of the season, with the Reds very close to making history. Benfica’s women’s team can win a sixth straight league title as early as the next matchday if they manage to beat Braga, further cementing an impressive dominance in Portuguese women’s football.

It should be remembered that the red-and-white club can lift the trophy on Saturday, 25 April, against Braga. The clash, which will count for the 16th round of the Liga BPI, will be played at 6:30 pm at Estádio Amélia Morais, in the city of archbishops.
