Look at this, Mourinho! Henrique Araújo making waves at Benfica | OneFootball

Henrique Araújo showcased his quality. Weeks after the transfer window closed, the 24-year-old forward returned to the field with Benfica's B team, where he stood out in the 4-2 victory against Felgueiras, in the 22nd round of the Liga Portugal Meu Super.

Starting in Nélson Veríssimo's initial lineup, the number 39 took advantage of José Mourinho and Rui Costa's presence at the Benfica Campus to deliver an impressive performance. After deciding to move down to the secondary squad, Araújo recorded a goal and an assist in the rout against Felgueiras.

In a match where the Special One 'loaned' eight players to the B team, these players made a difference. Playing at home, Benfica started the duel by winning a penalty in the 5th minute, which was converted by Henrique Araújo. Before halftime, the number 39 assisted for the 2-0, scored by Gonçalo Moreira.

In the second half, Nélson Veríssimo's team was not satisfied with a two-goal lead and sought more. The third goal came within seconds, with José Neto making it 3-0 in the 46th minute. Later, in the 54th minute, João Rego made it 4-0 for the Eagles. However, before the end of the match, Felgueiras reacted and managed to reduce the deficit to 4-2.

The Clube da Luz thus returns to winning ways in the championship, after having drawn in the previous round at Portimonense's ground. In summary, Benfica, after 22 rounds in the Liga Portugal Meu Super, is in seventh place in the standings, with 30 points accumulated.
