Luís Filipe Borges slams Ajax v Benfica display: psychological torture | OneFootball

Luís Filipe Borges was not at all convinced by José Mourinho's team's performance in the Ajax – Benfica match. Despite the 2-0 victory, with goals from Samuel Dahl and Leandro Barreiro, the well-known comedian claims that watching the reds play is “psychological torture,” arguing that Atlético CP posed more challenges than the Dutch team.

“Watching Benfica should be considered psychological torture. Ajax posed fewer challenges than Atlético. If I had seen this kind of football as a child, I wouldn't have liked it. Benfica still doesn't convince,” says Luís Filipe Borges, in statements to the newspaper Record, after the Champions League match.

With this victory – the 15th in 24 matches this season –, Benfica now has three points in five Champions League matches (one win and four losses) and is in 29th place in the prestigious competition, still having the possibility of securing a spot in the play-off.

In the next round of the Champions League, Benfica will host Napoli at the Estádio da Luz (December 10, 8:00 PM). The last two rounds of the prestigious competition will include a trip to Juventus' home ground (January 21, 8:00 PM) and a home match against Real Madrid (January 28, 8:00 PM).
