Tara Moran+FollowLightning Strikes: Chelsea vs. Benfica DramaWhat a wild finish at Bank of America Stadium! Just as Reece James’ free-kick had the Blues edging out Benfica, Mother Nature stepped in with a lightning delay in the 87th minute.

Tara Moran+FollowBenfica Blitz: Di María Dominates AgainWow, what a rough Club World Cup run for Auckland City—back-to-back routs, this time a 6-0 thrashing by Benfica! Di María (aka Fideo) showed his class with two penalty goals, while Barreiro also bagged a brace. The match had everything: a thunderstorm delay, a heated spat over an injury stoppage (yellow card for Carreras), and a second-half goal avalanche. Benfica’s attack just overwhelmed Auckland, especially after the weather break. Anyone else think Auckland deserved better in the first half? #ClubWorldCup #Benfica #AucklandCity #Sports #Soccer00Share

Malik Williams+FollowWill Liverpool Bench Nunez to Dodge €5M Fee?Looks like Darwin Nunez is at the center of some transfer drama again! Word is, Benfica are sweating over a €5M bonus that gets triggered if El Toro starts just one more game for Liverpool this season. With only five matches left and Nunez seemingly out of Arne Slot’s plans, it’s looking like the Reds might keep him on the bench to avoid paying up. Smart business or unfair to Benfica? Curious to see how this plays out! #LFC #Nunez #Benfica #TransferNews #PremierLeague #Sports70Share
