Benfica sweep aside Académica, keep perfect run going | OneFootball

On the morning of this Saturday, the youth teams of Benfica, from various age groups, were in action all over the country. Among the highlighted matches was the victory of the under-15 Eagles team, who defeated Académica de Coimbra by two goals to nil, in the third round of the National Under-15 Championship.

In a match that is never easy, considering the quality of the opposing club, which also aims to win titles, the young Eagles team managed to show their superiority, before some of their players departed for the National Team training camp.

With the match taking place at Field No. 1 of the Briosa Academy in Coimbra, Benfica's under-15 team sought to continue the good form they have shown in the National Championship. The 2-0 win against Académica featured contributions from Tiago Neves and Tomás Moreira.

On the same morning, at 11:00 am, the Glorious' under-23 and B teams were also in action; however, the outcome was quite different for both sides. While Vítor Vinha's pupils dispatched Estrela Amadora by 4-1, Nélson Veríssimo's team continues without a win, after losing to Felgueiras, 2-1.

After three rounds, the Eagles' team remains in joint leadership with Sporting in the South Series of the 1st phase of the National Under-15 Championship, with Sporting ahead due to goal difference. Next Sunday, September 21, the Club from Luz returns to Benfica Campus for the fourth round of the competition, where they will face Belenenses.
