“When we work at Benfica, we have to come to these competitions with a great ambition. So our first goal was to spend the first phase. And after that, finishing first, it’s just a game where anything can happen. We had a good chance of passing, but we have to understand that we are playing with a good team,” said the “Eagles” coach.
Bruno Lage took the opportunity to anticipate the new season and take stock of the club’s performance in 2024/2025.
“For 95% of the clubs was a reasonable job, but for Benfica clearly not enough because we lacked the main objective, which was to win the championship,” Lage said.
