Liga Sagres: Clube Desportivo Nacional 3-1 SL Benfica

Goodbye Champions League!

The few chances Benfica had to access the pre-eliminatory of Champions League vanished last Saturday night. The match in the island of Madeira was being well disputed and information’s received before that SCP had lost points in Coimbra were also positive. Unfortunately to us Nacional da Madeira proved why they occupy the 4th place of the Portuguese League and once again made a fantastic game.

Some Portuguese newspapers said that Benfica was interested in two Nacional players. We may ask if that is true or not, but one thing is for sure, they proved that they know how to score goals.

Benfica could and should have done more in this game, but things aren’t so easy. To make things worse the substitutions established didn’t help. Talking about people in the bench, Binya wasn’t used again and is a pity because he has a big heart. The dedication of Binya to the game is so enormous, that he could have helped a lot, our team during the current season, in this tuff Portuguese League.

Gilles Augustin Binya (1984/08/29)

Gilles Binya was born in Yaoundé, Cameroon. This defensive midfielder started playing in the local clubs like Nassara and Cintra Constellacio. Also marked presence in Coton Sport Football Club de Garoua and Tonnerre Kalara Club de Yaoundé of the Cameroon Premiere Division. The Argelian Club MC Oran was represented for three seasons before signing with Benfica.

Binya may not be an artist with the ball on his feet, but he destroys the opponent offensive like few other players. A player like Binya can be much useful helping our team when the ball is with the opponent players. Very persuasive, dedicated and very good physically needs to improve his agility with the ball and the distribution of it, to avoid damages to the team. His strength is shown in the line thrown in that cause many troubles to the adversaries.

The participation of Binya on the benfica’s team, this season, started reducing, after he saw a second yellow card and went off, on a balls hand fault. Things could be different to Binya if the referee of that game had been the same of this against Nacional…
