After making his Benfica debut, Rodrigo Rêgo admits: I dreamed of this | OneFootball

Rodrigo Rêgo did not hide his emotion about his debut in the main team. The young footballer played the full 90 minutes on the field for Benfica against Atlético, in the fourth round of the Portuguese Cup. At the end, the number 67 revealed that he had finally fulfilled a dream he had set when he arrived at Seixal.

"My debut in the main team of Sport Lisboa e Benfica was a moment I will never forget", began the number 67, in a post made on the social network Instagram. It is worth remembering that the young man, a native of Aveiro, completed the 90 minutes on the field against the Alcântara team, earning praise from José Mourinho.

In the same message, Rodrigo Rêgo explained that since he joined Benfica's training, the goal was to achieve the moment he realized last Saturday, November 22: "From the first day I wore the sacred mantle, I dreamed of the opportunity to represent the club at the highest level".

"Entering the locker room, hearing the stadium's atmosphere grow just before the game were moments that made me realize the magnitude of that day, a mix of anxiety, pride, and determination settled in me", added the young footballer from the red formation.

"When I stepped onto the pitch, everything seemed to happen faster: the sound of the fans, the movement of the teams for the start of the game, and the adrenaline running through my body. Every touch on the ball, every run, and every decision were more than game actions, they were the realization of years of work", Rodrigo Rêgo finally added.
