Top Performance: Spanish Striker Mujica Threatens Benfica – Arouca vs. Benfica Match Recap

Spanish striker was a constant threat for Benfica

A figure: Mujica (note 6)

He did almost everything well: with his back, in support of Christ and acting with the right measure of David Simão’s passes to intermediate areas, but also in responding to requests in finishing areas, where happiness is closer. Only then did the Spanish striker fail, either because the ball went close to the posts or because Trubin didn’t let him smile. But he was the one who came closest to doing it.

Arouca played with a defense playing a few meters ahead and this required a lot of coordination from the central defenders. Galovic e Montero, powerless, however, in the face of Rafa’s speed, Di María’s vision of the game and Musa’s aggressiveness, especially the Spanish central defender, who was left in the grave after the Croatian’s goal. At the goal, Arruabar’s (a goalkeeper who was on the Eagles’ radar) tried to delay the goal as long as he could and at 0-1 he even stopped Rafa’s first attempt with a save from the handball goalkeeper. David Simãowith the support of Syllatried to make the team’s game as clear as possible, trying to dismantle Benfica’s pressure with passes to burn lines in search of the men in front, who ran a lot, but almost always made the worst decisions. Jason rarely managed to pass through Morato, unlike Christ Gonzaleza very mobile striker who gives defenses a lot of work with his constant positional changes, which also allowed the right-back to climb with discretion Milovanov.

Notes to players Arouca: Arruabarrena (6), Milovanov (6), Galovic (5), Montero (4) and Tiago Esgaio (5); Jason (4), David Simon (6), Kouassi (5) and Sylla (5); Mujica (6) and Cristo Gonzalez (5); Substitutes: Bukia (4), Michel (-), Trezza (-) and Pedro Santos (-)
