Casa Pia AC vs SL Benfica

Benfica delivered a ruthless finishing masterclass at Rio Maior, crushing Casa Pia 0-7 in the Primeira Liga's second round. The standout moment came from Vangelis Pavlidis, who blew the game open with a hat-trick scored in just seven minutes, matching the fastest Primeira Liga treble of the century. Gianluca Prestianni struck early in the 3rd minute, before Rafa Silva doubled the lead in the 14th, teed up by Pavlidis. After the break, Pavlidis fired in three more between the 47th and 54th minutes, Lawrence Ofori turned into his own net in the 58th, and Jhon Durán, assisted by Alexander Bah, capped the scoring in the 61st. Casa Pia's misery deepened when Khaly was shown a second yellow and sent off late on. For Benfica, it was the perfect response after opening the season with a draw, proving their attack can steamroll lesser sides. Casa Pia, by contrast, face an anxious start to the campaign with glaring defensive issues exposed.
