The draw at Moreirense’s home leaves Benfica at risk of losing the lead in the Betclic League, that is, of course, if Sporting triumphs against Gil Vicente, in a match scheduled for 8:15 pm this Monday. After wasting a three-goal lead and drawing against Inter in the middle of the week, Roger Schmidt’s team disappointed once again on their return to the championship and criticism from the Benfica nation reappeared. Our newspaper spoke to three well-known fans, who pointed the finger at the German coach.
Bruno de Carvalho, former presidential candidate
“Who takes João Neves off at half-time to put Chiquinho on? It doesn’t make any sense. An amorphous game in which we did little to deserve more. Schmidt’s difficulty in reading the game is embarrassing. The future looks worrying.”
Camilo Lourenço, economist
“Speed was needed to overcome Moreirense’s lines in front of the area and Benfica spent their time exchanging the ball and pumping it into the area. A month and a half ago I said here that the coach lost the locker room and I didn’t know if the I was going to recover. I haven’t recovered yet…”
Pedro Brinca, university professor
“It’s hard to see the eagle try to fly without wings. You can’t have the same offensive quality. And Schmidt has difficulty finding alternatives. You feel that Benfica is always in difficulties and so often the pitcher goes to the source that leaves the wing there .”
