The draw between Casa Pia and Benfica has continued to generate a lot of debate in recent days. More recently, the press revealed that José Mourinho, at the end of the match in Rio Maior, clashed with several players from the Club of Light, something that has been widely echoed.

According to newspaper A Bola, in this Friday’s edition, José Mourinho was far from pleased with what happened on the geese’s pitch, making sure to show it at the end of the game. According to the same source, the Special One wasted no time in criticizing the players who were targeted.

According to what A Bola reported, the situation created some tension, with the players not appreciating the fact that the Special One publicly criticized the performances of some of them. Without revealing names, the press indicates that José Mourinho called into question the character of players such as Rafa Silva, Enzo Barrenechea, Georgiy Sudakov or Dodi Lukebakio.

In the case of the Argentine midfielder, the number 5 has been putting in performances below expectations, which has generated a certain wave of criticism among the fans. Despite being one of the players targeted by the criticism, the midfielder is still an option for the clash against Nacional on April 12.

The draw against Casa Pia greatly complicated Benfica’s situation, not only in the title race, but also in the battle for second place in the competition. After 28 rounds of the Liga Portugal Betclic, the Club of Light is in third place with 66 points, behind Sporting, with 68 points and a game in hand, and Porto, who lead the standings with 73 points.
