Luís Filipe Borges slams starter after Newcastle v Benfica: inenarrável | OneFootball

Benfica was thrashed in Newcastle (3-0) in the third round of the Champions League. Luís Filipe Borges was furious with the result, slamming Richard Ríos’s performance, José Mourinho’s decisions, and Rui Costa’s leadership.

“An indescribable Ríos coming from the Brasileirão, a league that’s been dead for 20 years. A dying Mourinho, shortly after the Brasileirão, who makes a substitution, and a forced one at that. And finally, a president who was never even born,” said the comedian in statements to the newspaper Record.

“Newcastle ended up winning deservedly. They have a different pace and physical power,” guaranteed Bruno Aguiar, assuring that “Benfica, even so, deserved more luck in Lukebakio’s three chances.” “We have a lot of work ahead of us,” he admitted.

“In the first half it seemed like we had a chance to make a good impression. We had opportunities. In the second, a total disappointment. If it weren’t for Trubin’s huge saves, it would have been a rout,” said Yolanda Coluna.

Benfica returns to the pitch next Saturday, October 25, at Estádio da Luz, against Arouca. The match against Vasco Seabra’s team is part of the ninth round of Liga Portugal Betclic and kicks off at 8:30 p.m.
