Pride in the victory and focus on what's to come. These were the main messages shared by Benfica players on social media after the victory at Estádio da Luz over Napoli. The match, part of the sixth round of the Champions League, rekindled the Eagles' hope for qualification to the next stage of the prestigious tournament.

"There’s a lot of talk around, but the answer is always on the field. The team did a great job and achieved an important home victory. We have new challenges ahead, so we continue to work with dedication", wrote Trubin, who had been criticized after the derby with Sporting.

Leandro Barreiro also commented on the victory, not forgetting his own moment: "Victory, clean sheet [no goals conceded], and a goal. Champions League nights are always special". Sudakov added something along the same lines as the Luxembourger: "Every night is special in the Champions League. What a team! What fans! Keep fighting!".

Franjo Ivanovic was once again a starter for Benfica, taking the spot usually held by Vangelis Pavlidis. The Croatian striker, who has struggled to establish himself at Luz, also left his message of strength: "Let's go Benfica!!! 3 points".
