This result massively flatters Benfica, it was men against boys apart from 10 minutes at the start of the second half. Merino’s disallowed goal was insanely unlucky and it’s kind of a bullshit rule since the ball was already going in without the handball. Then Brais misses a penalty
Without any exaggeration, it should have been 5-0 at half time
