1-1, Benfica gave up on their home turf to achieve such a draw. This result was obviously not satisfactory to Benfica coach Santos, looking at the result of the game, Santos stood on the sidelines in a daze, and at this time he regretted it a little.

Seeing that Benfica's main players were exhausted one by one, Santos really regretted it, very regretted. If they get three points in this game, then Santos thinks it's worth it, but now, with only one point, Santos doesn't think it's worth it.

Having consumed too much in this game and clearly not conducive to the Champions League quarter-finals next week, Santos sighed silently and shook his head.

At the end of this round, Benfica are still at the top of the league table, with 55 points, two points ahead of second-placed Porto, while third-placed Sporting Lisbon are 49 points.

Benfica are still two points ahead of Porto, but the Benfica feel unsafe, they could have had the opportunity to extend the lead to five points, but unfortunately, they didn't grasp it, and it was too much to lose by letting Benfica's main players consume so much.

It was precisely because of the energy and physical energy consumed by Benfica people in this game that when they went to the away game, Benfica lost 0-2 to Roma and lost the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

Benfica rarely had a chance in this game, Roma's defense was tight, and Benfica had physical problems, so it was not wrong for Benfica to lose this game at all.

After the loss, Santos had to sigh and in the post-match press conference, Santos took all the blame on him, and he apologized to the Benfica fans for thinking too much and consuming too much in the league.

Speaking at his post-match press conference, Santos said he would give the Benfica players a break when he returned to the league. At this time, Santos was very confident in his words, because their next game was against Bellamar, who were second from bottom in the league.

Bellamar has now finally gotten rid of the vice-president of the league, and their brother-in-law Ives has taken over their banner and sat in the vice-captain's position. However, Bellamar is only one point ahead of Avis, so Aives firmly believes that the position of deputy squad leader is still Bellamar's, and they are only temporary.

Against the second-to-last team in the league, Santos believes his substitutes will be able to solve it easily. That's why he dared to boast so much about Haikou in his post-match press conference.

Sure enough, after returning to the league, Santos rotated, Qiu Ze and other main players did not go to Aveiro with the team at all, and Santos went to the away court with a squad of substitutes to challenge Bellamar.

Originally, Qiu Ze wanted to go to Aveiro with the team, he wanted to see the fans of Aveiro, and by the way, to see the two beauties of Milian, they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Qiu Ze felt that he missed them a lot. However, he didn't make the squad, so he had to stay in Lisbon to take a good break to prepare for next week's midweek Champions League clash of death.

Originally, Santos thought that this match with Bellamar would be extremely easy, and they should be able to win Zuihou, but who knew that Bellamar would burst out with great energy in this game, and finally won 2-2 at home. Forced a draw for the mighty Benfica.

When he saw this result, Santos's face turned pale, he regretted a little that he didn't bring his main players here, and he couldn't even win the second-to-last team in the league, this is really a fucking back, Santos regretted it.

Santos regretted the loss of the chain at this critical moment, holding his head in his hands, and in doing so, they had to give up the top spot in the league. Porto and Benfica are now tied on 56 points, but Porto have a goal difference of as much as five more than Benfica, and Benfica deserve to be second.

There are six rounds left in the league, and Benfica is not without a chance, but it is extremely difficult for Benfica to surpass Porto, at this time, Benfica fans think that Santos's ability is not enough, and they think that the team needs to change a better coach next season, so that Benfica can go to the next level.

These are not the questions that Santos should be thinking about right now, and now he has to think about the next Champions League clash that will host Roma.

In the first leg between the two sides, Benfica lost 0-2 away, and in this game, Benfica must score at least 2-0 to retain Benfica's chance of qualifying, and this game is very difficult for Benfica.

For this game, Benfica is very serious, they really want to go one step further and break into the Champions League semi-finals. Benfica's hierarchy also valued the match, hoping that Benfica would win, for which they offered a prize of two million euros.

It's not too big for Benfica, but it's enough to get Benfica's players excited. You see, it's two million euros just to get to the top four. What if you win the UEFA Champions League? Even if you can't win the championship and enter the finals, the prize money is definitely considerable.

For the preparation of this game, Santos is very serious, from the end of the Bellamar game, they have taken a closed training, not to let everything outside to disturb Benfica's preparation, for this game, Benfica has only one goal, that is, to win, and to win more than 2-0.

The Roma team also attaches great importance to this game, although they have a 2-0 lead and have stepped into the Champions League semi-finals with one foot, but in the pre-match interview, the Roma still behaved very humble and very cautious.

Roma captain Totti said in an interview: "It's not the underdogs who have been able to get to where we are now, although we won 2-0 at home, but that doesn't mean we're in the last four. This game is going to be tougher than we thought it would be because the opponents want to qualify as well. In this regard, we are ready to face all difficulties and try not to disappoint the folks of Rome. ”

Roma coach Luciano Spalletti was more cautious: "Benfica are a very strong team and their performance this season has exceeded my expectations. They first beat Manchester United in the group stage and knocked Manchester United out of the group, which is really tough. And they were able to knock Manchester United out of the group for two seasons, so there's no doubt about their quality, it's going to be a tough game and we'll have to be prepared to play hard. ”

Speaking to the media, Roma defender Mexes said: "Benfica are very strong, although we won the first leg 2-0. But it was tough for us to win, and the opponent's attack was a real headache for me. If it weren't for the opponent's fitness problems in the last game, I think it would be difficult for us Roma to win against the opponent. Now I hear that Benfica's main players gave up the league for a week for this game, which is not good news for us and it will be a very difficult game. ”

Although Roma from top to bottom thought that this game would be very difficult, the outside media did not see it that way, and they thought that Roma could easily beat Benfica. It's a miracle that Benfica have come so far, and they really don't believe Benfica can beat Roma.

The outside media believes that the reason why the Roma players say this is to make the Benfica players float so that they can win the game more easily. The Roma team is obviously a step above Benfica, and Benfica has no chance against such a team.

And when the players of the Roma team were interviewed, no one on the Benfica side dared to show up and stand up for an interview with the media, which was seen by the media as the weak performance of Benfica's people, they thought that at this time Benfica themselves had no confidence, how could they Benfica win this game?

Of course, Benfica fans are very dissatisfied with the reports of these media, and they think that these media are just nonsense and speculation. They Benfica eliminated Manchester United, Lille by a big score, will they be afraid of Roma?

Benfica's defeat to Roma in their last game was nothing more than a spending-out of Benfica's league game against Porto. Now that their main Benfica players have been repairing for a week, they are confident that Benfica can comfortably beat Roma and progress to the last four of the Champions League.

Benfica's fans are very happy at this time, and they have been cheering for Benfica's players, hoping that the team can work hard to defeat Roma and give this group of garbage reporters a good look.

However, during this time, none of Benfica's players showed up, not even the team's head coach Santos did not stand up to speak, Benfica has been training behind closed doors, and no one knows what the situation of Benfica is now.

Santos shirked all the interviews and focused on the pre-match preparations, they really can't afford to lose this game, and he Santos wants to win this game. Of course, he has heard some rumours outside during this time, and he hopes that he can lead Benfica to the last four of the Champions League to prove to Benfica and the Portuguese fans that his Santos coaching ability is very good.

Santos didn't want to step down from this position so quickly, he hadn't been in this position for a year. He only took over the reins of Benfica at the end of last season, and before that, Benfica was managed by Dutchman Koeman.

Last season, Coman took Benfica to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and everyone recognised his ability. As long as he brings Benfica to the last four of the Champions League this season, then it shows that he Santos is stronger than Koeman, and he is more suitable to be the manager of Benfica than Koeman.

In this closed preparation time, Santos's training volume is not very large, he does not want to consume too much physical energy of Benfica players in training, the league is about to come to an end, at this time the players' physical fitness will definitely not be haode, he hopes that the players can save their physical energy for the game.

Qiu Ze also felt the pressure on Santos during this time, as well as Santos's ambition. Yes, Santos Qiu Ze is not easy to evaluate, but through this nearly a season of cooperation, Qiu Ze believes that Santos is a very conscientious head coach, meticulous in training, and very thoughtful. But Santos is not very mature right now, and there are still some problems on some issues.

However, Qiu Ze still believes that Santos is still quite suitable for Benfica, at least at this stage. As for this game, Qiu Ze is very confident, and he firmly believes that Benfica are capable of beating Roma.

In training, the Benfica players are very hard-working. Benfica's players are very eager to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals, and they don't want to be eliminated at this time, they also want to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals.

Therefore, during this time period, Benfica's players are very energetic and work very hard, just for the upcoming Champions League life and death battle. At their home stadium, Benfica's players will be hoping for a big win to see them through to the last four of this season's Champions League.

Benfica's closed training was so thorough that Santos didn't come out for an interview until the day before the match, during the regular press conference before the match. In an interview, Santos confidently told the reporters and Benfica fans that they were ready and that the victory must be theirs.

Roma fans were amused to hear it, as they didn't think Benfica would be able to snatch a place in the last four away from them. Therefore, the fans of the Roma team laughed like this: "The victory must belong to you Benfica, but it must be our Roma team who advances, hahaha!" ”
