Mourinho ecstatic! Benfica boss celebrates like never before | OneFootball

Last night, the national under-21 team took an important step towards the European Championship, after beating Scotland 3-0. In a match where Luís Freire once again placed his trust in Daniel Banjaqui and Gonçalo Moreira, the performances of the two youngsters once again greatly pleased José Mourinho, Benfica’s coach.

According to the newspaper A Bola, in this Wednesday’s edition, April 1, the two young Eagles repeated, and very successfully, the flair they had already shown in Baku, where they helped the team of the quinas beat Azerbaijan 4-0.

This time, the victim was Scotland, in Estoril, where Banjaqui, with only two appearances at this level, scored his first goal for Portugal, sending the stands into raptures. However, not to be outdone by his teammate’s feat, Gonçalo Moreira also got on the scoresheet for the second match in a row.

Now, the question remains: is José Mourinho fully convinced by Gonçalo Moreira’s qualities? The 20-year-old once again showed what he can do and made a strong case that his presence in Benfica’s first-team squad would be an asset.

In Banjaqui’s case, the 18-year-old full-back, who is said to have already renewed with the Eagles, further cemented his place in the squad, earning the status of a sure bet for the new season, when, according to Valter Marques, the player will be the second option behind Amar Dedic.
