Liga Sagres: Vitória Futebol Clube 0-4 SL Benfica

A soft Setúbal received a motivated Benfica team.

The way the Benfica team, that visited Setúbal last Sunday, played, surprised many of the spectators present. Our team played so well that made us remember the Glorious Benfica from other seasons.

The players had talked the week before and everybody knew things could be different if they worked together as a team. Of course when balls enter the nets and the goals appear everything seems easier. The sportive goals for the season are getting harder to reach but the better goal is reached this season that is gaining players, coach and a project that can re-launch the Club.


Victorio Maximiliano Pereira Páez (08/06/1984)

Maximiliano was born in Uruguay. The Montevideo player becomes known representing the Defensor Sporting Club. Maxi represented the Uruguayan Club between the years of 2002 and 2007.

Maxi came to Benfica to play in the right side of the midfield. Later he played some games on the same side but on the defence. The results were good and Maxi assumed the place occupied earlier by Nelson on the defence.


The current season demonstrates the great player Maxi can be, he is without any doubt the most regular player of the year in the Club. Maxi Pereira is the typical South American player who we appreciate in Europe giving everything he can during the 90 minutes.
Players like Maxi Pereira probably don’t score the goals that are appreciated by the common fans.

Players like Maxi with their solid, secure and constant way of playing help for sure teams gaining points and conquering victories and titles.
