Match Report
Benfica put on a devastating display at Estadio António Coimbra da Mota, blitzing Estoril 3-1 with three goals in the opening 16 minutes to all but seal this Primeira Liga curtain call before the hosts had time to settle.
Richard Ríos got the visitors rolling in the 7th minute, and Alexander Bah made it two just eight minutes later. Rafa Silva then added a third almost immediately to complete a stunning early blitz. Peixinho gave Estoril something to cheer with a consolation strike before the break, but goalkeeper Anatolii Trubin was rarely tested after that, finishing the game with five saves to keep things clean at the back.
For Benfica, the victory capped an unbeaten league season and a third-place finish in the Primeira Liga. Estoril ended the campaign in the lower half of the table, left to reflect on a tough afternoon that laid bare the gap between the two sides.
