Benfica in the League Europe's 16th Round ( video )
Benfica ensured his presence in the League Europe 16th-Round, and also the first place in Group I, by beating BATE Borisov by two goals to one.
The Portuguese team has not done a good first half, but two touches of class in second half were enough to ensure victory and the dual objective.
With Fabio Coentrão and Felipe Menezes to surrender Di MarÃa and Aimar, Benfica made a poor first half.
Jorge Jesus' team struggled to impose their greater technical merit and only created a real danger situation,at 15th minute , with Cardozo emerging alone and making a right foot pass to BATE's goalkeeper.
Belarusian team also not dazzled in first half, but created greater danger. At least for the ball thrown to the bar by Krivets, when collecting a free-kick (29m).Bordachov, by rebound, was also within inches of scoring.
Second half was much better, and much by Benfica's fault, and Portuguese formation, virtually guaranteed his qualification for the next phase to 46 minutes: Saviola scored after a great combination between Fabio Coentrão and Felipe Menezes, who made the assist to goal.
At 63 minutes Benfica doubled the lead after another good move by the left, with Coentrão to table with Saviola and concluding with a cross shot.
Stablishment and first place were practically guaranteed, but Benfica has had to suffer a little.
BATE created danger especially at set-pieces, and that's how it came to goal,at 69 minutes.Krivets marked the corner and Sosnovski won the heights, but it was a last rebound in Miguel VÃtor's body who betrayed Julio Cesar.
Aimar, who came off the bench, still had the goal of peace at his foot, but threw the goalkeeper figure(74m).
In last minutes BATE Borisov pushed hard, sent Benfica to his defense, but failed to score a goal that would not invalidate the discharge, but that would leave open the first place of group I.
Game against AEK, which will be disputed at Stadium of "Luz"(December, 17), a few days before the visit of FC Porto , will only do to meet schedule.
