Rui Águas says Benfica striker reminds him of a child: “Hardly” | OneFootball

Rui Àguas made some remarks regarding Gianluca Prestianni’s performance. The former Benfica player believes that the young Argentine has a lot to offer the Club of Light. Furthermore, the Benfica legend compared the number 25 to a child, noting that he plays at his limit, never lowering his intensity.

Gianluca Prestianni, it should be recalled, was one of the surprises for the Eagles in the thrashing of Arouca. “On the opposite side, the difficulties Benfica has had in creating attacking plays now included the returning Prestianni, who acted as the team’s main agitator,” Rui Àguas began in his opinion piece published by the newspaper A Bola.

However, the Club of Light legend made a revelation about the under-20 international’s playing ability, quoting the Special One: “Prestianni is someone, as Mourinho said, who can hardly play the full match. He is one of those players who remind you of children.”

Given the explosive ability of the number 25, Rui Àguas believes that this type of footballer is always playing at the edge of their game: “Physical management doesn’t exist. He always plays at the limit, until he can’t anymore. A rare irreverence that inspired teammates and fans alike, directly contributing to the victory.”

“[Vangelis] Pavlidis and [Dodi] Lukebakio, his attacking partners, were active, but well contained by Arouca’s defensive tactics,” added the Benfica legend, highlighting the other members of the Eagles’ attacking line.
