Benfica definitely doesn’t have a game this season, but neither does the title team! That is completely clear after tonight’s draw against Boavista (2:2).
The “Eagles” have been in free fall for the last few weeks, and tonight’s mistake probably took away the last hope that they could reach the title.
Benfica had more than a game and a secure lead in Porto, but she failed to celebrate.
Taarabt put the guests from Lisbon in the lead in the 21st minute, and Grimaldo doubled the advantage of his team only nine minutes later.
Benfica attacked even after the second goal, creating chances, but could not reach the third goal.
Until fifteen minutes before the end, Benfica had control of the game, but then Boavista, in vain, played incomparably better.
In the 74th minute, Musa reduced from 16 meters to 1:2, and in just six minutes, Gaius Makouta hammered the ball into the net and set the shocking, final 2: 2.
