Santa Clara chief reflects on Benfica clash: we didn't win, but... | OneFootball

Bruno Vicintin expressed great pride in the result achieved by Santa Clara, in the match against Benfica, counting for the fifth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. The Brazilian businessman is the largest shareholder of the SAD of the team from the island of São Miguel, in the Azores.

"Team of warriors", was the initial reaction of Bruno Vicintin, the strongman of Santa Clara. The Brazilian businessman was referring to the draw that the Azoreans achieved at Estádio da Luz, a testament to the importance of matches for smaller clubs against the red team.

"When I arrived in Portugal, my father said that one day we would win at Luz. We haven't won yet, but we already drew playing almost the entire game with one player less," said the main shareholder of Santa Clara, highlighting the result achieved by his team in one of the most iconic Portuguese stadiums.

Bruno Vicintin continued with more words of pride regarding the Santa Clara team that drew one-all at Benfica's home: "They must respect the work of everyone involved. Congratulations to all, team of warriors."

It should be noted that Benfica lost their first points of the national championship against Santa Clara, at home, last Friday. Furthermore, the reds conceded a goal for only the second time this season, after also conceding against Alverca, in the Eagles' 2-1 victory.
