Benfica beat the Spanish Girona 4-2 this afternoon, in Switzerland. In another friendly match, the goals only appeared in the second half. It was the Spanish who opened the scoring, through Stuani, who had no problem beating Vlachodimos.
Five minutes later, the rojillos equalized after a corner. The new reinforcement Bah went up and Vertonghen, left-footed, scored.
In the 60th minute it was Bah’s turn, who put the eagles ahead of the scoreboard. Shortly after, the Ukrainian Yaremchuk successfully converted a penalty, extending the red advantage.
Thirteen minutes from the end, Santiago Bueno again lowered the Catalan team and, over 90 minutes, in the half turn, Rodrigo Pinho set the final result. Next Tuesday, Benfica returns to Lisbon to face the English club Newcastle in the Eusébio Cup.
