Otamendi vents on social media, ex-Benfica man says better times are coming | OneFootball

Nicolás Otamendi reacted to Benfica's recent situation. The defeat to Qarabag led to the dismissal of Bruno Lage and the return of José Mourinho, 25 years later. On social media, the central defender vented, and Ángel Dí Maria left a special message.

"There's a lot of season and many goals still ahead. The weak do not try. Today it's up to us to work better and keep trying. On Saturday we will have the opportunity to do it together, as a team", began the 'number 30' of the eagles.

At the same time, Otamendi reassured Benfica fans, aiming for success during the season, despite the setbacks: "Our moment will come quickly. Talent is not enough, if focus and conviction are not your priority".

In the comments section, Ángel Dí Maria, former teammate of Otamendi at Benfica and the Argentine national team, left a special motivation for the owner of the red armband, believing that the eagles will bounce back: "Now comes the best, friend. Let's go all out".

The Benfica team will be back on the field next Saturday, September 20, at 6:00 pm, in Vila das Aves, against AVS. The match is part of the sixth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The eagles will play again for the Champions League on September 30, against Chelsea, in London.
