Liga Sagres: SL Benfica 0–1 Associação Académica de Coimbra

An unlucky game may have thrown away the lost hopes of winning the present Portuguese League.

The “students” team, Associação Académica de Coimbra did it again, after the victory obtained last season at Luz stadium, they won again. This time, the victory was completely different, the Benfica players failed goals that could and should have changed the final result.

Many supporters want another coach to the team. Others want some other players, but things are not solved so easily. The organization of the Club is for sure better that in the large years passed. The majority of people inside the Club know exactly what they need to do and what is expected from them.
Here we give some suggestions that may be already implemented but if they exist maybe they should be reworked: offering a target bonus that encourages the players and incentive their productivity; Players with strong Mentality are needed so Psychological experts are fundamental on the modern football. The players are professionals and their costs are elevated for the Club so they must have near them someone defending the Club interests. This science will help the players putting away their ghosts, understanding at the same time in what areas the player can be helped. Good investments must be done to receive later more benefits and incomes.


Sidnei Rechel da Silva Junior (23/06/1989)

Sidnei was born in Alegrete, Brazil. He started playing football in the Sport Club International team from Porto Alegre. He knew he had to catch the chance when God allow it. A companion lesion made him jump to the first team, thrown by the Brazilian coach Abel Braga. Representing International and also Brazil, Sidnei had the companion of Alexandre Pato, also know showing his qualities in Europe.

He is a strong central defender. The way Sidnei plays football is so brilliant that his youth doesn’t matter at all. On the defensive everyone likes to play with him, he acts quickly and with security, giving tranquillity to other players mates. Sidnei frequently helps the team scoring goals when a corner kick or a free kick occurs.

The value of a Central player is demonstrated by a sum of factors like Quality of pass (short/long), Defensive Positioning, Team Spirit, Mentality, Good interpretation of the game. Sidnei already shows these qualities that are improving since the International times. If Sidnei’s career develops as expected he will sooner or later have the Champions League Cup on his hands. The question is: will that moment be while representing SL Benfica?
