Nicolás Otamendi didn’t need many words to comment on Benfica’s latest victory against Gil Vicente, in the seventh round of Liga Portugal Betclic. The Benfica captain posted an image from that match on social media and highlighted only the three points earned and the next game, which counts for the Champions League.
Once again, Benfica’s affairs caught the attention of Di María. The Argentine winger left a comment on Nicolás Otamendi’s post, saying, “Of course, ‘capi’. Let’s keep going.” It’s worth remembering that the world champion had already left a ‘message’ for Bruno Lage when he was dismissed.
There was also more about the victory over Gil Vicente. Trubin also posted an image on Instagram, which even received a comment from Sudakov, reading “Wall.”
It’s worth noting that Trubin delivered a great performance against Gil Vicente, with some record numbers: the Ukrainian goalkeeper made a total of seven saves in that match, the highest number in his career since joining the Benfica squad.
Benfica secured the three points from the match against Gil Vicente, after a hard-fought 2-1 victory. The Eagles’ next challenge is already on Tuesday, September 30. The Eagles travel to London to face Chelsea in the second round of the Champions League group stage.
