The Benfica women’s team is just one match away from being crowned national champions once again. In the build-up to the clash against Torreense, one of the sides that has caused the Eagles the most problems, Ivan Baptista was asked about the “hexa” and stated that the important thing is to secure the points.
“As the end of the league season approaches, matches become increasingly decisive for all teams,” began the coach of the Inspiradoras, speaking to BTV, acknowledging that the team in red will face plenty of difficulties on the pitch in the match against the side from Torres Vedras.
“Naturally, this will be a good, hard-fought game, like the four we have already played against Torreense this season. This one will be no different,” predicted Ivan Baptista, admitting that he does not expect an easy task against Torreense, a team Benfica have already faced several times this season, with a fairly balanced record.
“We know Torreense very well, we know very well the quality they have, but also what the matches against them have been like. We know the superiority we are able to impose on the game when we are at our best,” added Ivan Baptista, speaking to BTV, offering glowing praise for the Oeste side, who have been enjoying a consistent season in the Liga BPI.
“It will depend much more on what we are able to do,” concluded the Benfica coach, in the preview of the match that could hand the Inspiradoras their sixth consecutive national title. However, for that scenario to become reality this Sunday, 5 April, the team in red must beat Torreense and hope that Sporting do not take all three points against Braga.
