On this Wednesday night, the Brazilian coach started with the following lineup: Peter Wohlfahrtstätter, Francisco Pombeiro, Pablo Natan, Murad Khan, Kelvi Geovani, Tomás Natário, and Bernar.do Silva (L).
During the first set, the red and white team had no trouble imposing their dominance. In the opening duel, the Eagles defeated the Croatian team 25-13, immediately taking the lead on the scoreboard at the Pavilhão da Luz.
To the delight of the Benfica fans in the stands, Marcel Matz’s team responded in the same way in the second set, once again beating OK Medjimurje, who could not keep up with Benfica’s pace (25-12).
In the third and final set, to confirm the Eagles’ favoritism, the Croatian team still tried to respond, but the Glorious were always in control of the match and sealed their place in the next round of the CEV Challenge Cup by winning 25-15.
