Familiar faces at Benfica react to win over Nacional: total dominance | OneFootball

Benfica's victory over Nacional did not go unnoticed by anyone. At the end of the match, there were several reactions to the result achieved by the Eagles at Choupana, with numerous praises for the players of the Clube da Luz; however, there were also those who were left with burning ears.

"It ended up being a victory of desire, will, and the team's attitude. Let this game be remembered for this will and spirit to win. On the other hand, Otamendi cannot make these childish mistakes again," commented Bruno Aguiar, former footballer, in statements to Record, where he also targeted the captain.

"Nacional scored against the run of play, but Benfica did not give up and Prestianni's stunning goal restored hope to the team and the fans. An exciting comeback!" pointed out Sandra Ferreira, daughter of the legendary Eusébio da Silva Ferreira, a legend of the Glorious.

"Reward for the spirit and motivation. Great entry by Prestianni and Schjelderup, completely changing the game. Total dominance despite Nacional's constant time-wasting. Mourinho gained a team," said Bruno Costa Carvalho, former candidate for the presidency of the Eagles, highlighting the performance of the substitutes.

It should be noted that Benfica had to sweat to leave Madeira with the three points, as the victory only came after two goals scored just before the final whistle. With this result, the Eagles led by José Mourinho are tied with Sporting in 2nd place and are just three points behind Porto.
