Benfica vs Sporting CP 2019 (Benfica-Sporting Super Cup VIDEO BELOW)
Final score and result:- Benfica vs Sporting 5-0 (Pizzi*2, Grimaldo, Rafa Silva, Chiquinho)
Estadio do Algarve- 4 August, 2019
Benfica put Sporting to the sword as they win 5-0 to claim the Portuguese Super Taca
Young Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes, linked with the likes of Manchester United and Real Madrid in the current 2019-20 summer transfer window, is also an excellent penalty taker.
The Portuguese press have taken note of the fact that Bruno has been instrumental in Sporting CP’s penalty shootout victories in the recent past. The 24 year old has been asked to take penalties on the last six occasions, and has scored in all!
Another fine penalty taker appears to be veteran French international Jeremy Mathieu, who also boasts of a 100% record (4/4). A player favoured to take penalties, but not supremely successful with them is former Liverpool defender Sebastian Coates, who now plies his trade in Lisbon.
A look at the stats below for Sporting’s incredible recent streak of penalty shootout wins (they’ve won the last seven they’ve been involved in)
Benfica vs Nacional 2019 (SLB Nacional 2019)
Final score and result:- Benfica vs Nacional 10-0 (Seferovic*2, Grimaldo, Felix, Pizzi pen, Ferreira, Dias, Jonas*2, Rafa Silva)
Estadio do Luz- 10 February, 2019
History created in Portugal as Benfica score 10 goals (yes TEN) and thrash Nacional. They’re the first Portuguese team to achieve this fear in a league game since 1965 (they were the last to do it when they won 11-3 against Seixal)
