8-1!
Benfica beat Cliftonville in the semi-finals of Group F for the UEFA Women’s Champions League. Thus, Al-Nusour will face SFK Riga, in a match scheduled for Saturday, with the winner qualifying for the second round.
In Seixall, the Eagles gave Northern Ireland no chance and went into the break with a 4-0 win thanks to goals from Mari Aledo, Lucia Alves, Andrea Falcon and Norney’s own goal (a funny shot).
At least half of the goal is from Aledo 😎

In the second half Benfica scored four more goals with Lara Martins highlighting. The 16-year-old scored twice (one of the goals was right on point!) in his first Champions League match! Amazing, isn’t it? Lucia Alves also scored twice in the second half while Beatriz Nogueira (the first time she scored) also added her name to the list of scorers.
From 💫 the letter a.
Very crack Lara Martinez.
