Win over Nacional lets Benfica match feat last seen three years ago | OneFootball

Benfica matched a record they hadn't reached in about three years. In the aftermath of the victory against Nacional, the eagles, led by José Mourinho, achieved their third consecutive win as visitors, something that hadn't happened since the 2022/23 season.

The feat occurred after Benfica managed an important week of games in different competitions: Liga Portugal Betclic, Champions League, and the Portuguese Cup. In the league, the Glorious beat the islanders (2-1); in the prestigious competition, the victim was Ajax (2-0); and in the main cup, the eagles eliminated Atlético (2-0).

In the current season, the Club of Light had already achieved a similar mark, also recording three consecutive wins without conceding goals. This feat happened on two occasions: once with Bruno Lage and the other with José Mourinho. Under the guidance of the Special One, Benfica defeated Arouca (5-0), Tondela (3-0), and Vitória de Guimarães (3-0).

The last time the reds managed three consecutive away victories was in the 2022/23 season, the first under the leadership of Roger Schmidt. At that time, the German led the reds to victories against Maccabi Haifa (6-1) and Estoril (5-1 and 1-0), in the Champions League, League, and Cup.

work begins this Monday, December 1st. The match between eagles and lions is scheduled for Friday, December 5th, at Estádio da Luz.
