Guardiola wins the battle and Bayern goes to semifinals

The Estadio da Luz became a pressure cooker , as feared Thiago Alcantara, but the mirage lasted 38 minutes. Benfica had to give in to the powerful Bayern Munich, and that Pep Guardiola Lewandowski sat on the bench to opt for a hat trick attack clearly addicted to the average tip.
The Portuguese, with the significant drop of the Brazilian Jonas , managed to sow panic in the German box to mark the Mexican Raul Jimenez, former Atletico Madrid. But before the break put Arturo Vidal(again, as in the way) things in place.
That's hopes vanished in Lisbon and Bayern began to show his safety, his conviction that will be on Friday in the draw for the Champions League semifinals.
When Thomas Müller scored the second both, and it became too difficult for the team Rui Vitória, specialist harangue his players with more thrust and heart than anything else.
He gambled by withdrawing the Luso coach Pizzi to get the Brazilian Talisca, who soon prove his punching power with a goal from a free.
But hardly it had time for a comeback, as two goals with just over 10 minutes required to play.
The Estadio da Luz recovered the illusion with the draw, but hung in the air a climate of resignation directly proportional to the German fortress.
One can speak at all ride for Bayern , but it became clear that it is more team and once again deserves to appear in the hype of the last heat, prior to the final at San Siro on May 28.
Guardiola ended strategy paying off, certifying that is an expert in bringing their pupils born winner (as it did in Barcelona) at the top of the top European competition.
The club and the public Lisbon had to settle for at least not lose the match, proof that they have maintained the type in the aggregate.

Lisbon trembles before the arrival of Bayern

Bayern Guardiola again crossed with a Portuguese enemy in the quarterfinals of Champions . If last year had to face against Porto in Lopetegui , now they will face Benfica. The historic champion of Europe (against Barcelona in 1961 and against Real Madrid the following year) is today far from that squad led by the great Eusebio , and fear has already been installed at the Estadio da Luz before the spectacular moment form of German giant with Lewandowski, Thiago, Coman , Ribéry , Vidal , Lahm , et cetera. The great hope of the 'red eagles' is based on playing the secondleg in Portugal.
What is clear is that the team led by Luis Filipe Vieira has gone from strength to strength this season. It began in the domestic championship erratic, self - conscious about the "betrayal" of his coach in recent years.And it is that Jorge Jesus changed sides and went over to Sporting Lisbon.But over the months you have seen consolidate the commitment Rui Vitória, the coach who brought up from level to Guimaraes.
Your profile is completely different: no polemics and a rigor that has finished paying off, as the Benfica has regained the lead in the Portuguese League.Brazilian Jonas , former Valencia striker shines at the point of attack and march prominent in the struggle for the "top scorer" with 28 goals. Le clothes Greek Mitroglou , maybe something irregular but usually demonstrates a defendant thrust. In fact, on the agenda of several European giants.
Gaitan Argentine and Mexican Raul Jimenez , former Atletico Madrid, also exhibited his punching power, albeit intermittently. But the rising star of Benfica is the young Renato Sanches, 18, ​​who excels in the midfield and sees its price increase. His contribution to the Portuguese national team in the next European Championship in France can shoot even more pedigree.

Pope derbys

Last 6 years

15 games, 10 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss
27 to 6 goals.

This time

2 games, 2 wins, 4-0 in goals

Its share of victories and so clearly in terms of mastery and control is such amazing way that the light had anybody who thought that derbys would (or would be) guaranteed victories. When in the years prior to his arrival at Benfica, Sporting some years ago that dominated his rival ...

PS - Meanwhile on TV discusses the lack of quality of the side SL Benfica. In the cafe where I saw the game discussing the lack of any motivating speech Rui Vitória in the resort. While there is such a lack of knowledge about the game, this blog will make sense ...

PS II - SL Benfica goes to have had the past six years the highest percentage of wins of his post history to the sixties ...


PS III - In twenty minutes derby Sporting made ​​more goals in the Light that he had added the previous six years. 

PS - IV - A regular television commentator who had been months on end to praise the merits of Benfica and see defects in everything what was the Sporting suddenly remembered to say that Sporting is no better than Benfica, but much better. Would joke realize is this opinion based on a result, when previously not been able to understand the transformations underway. Would joke ... was not this person called to comment ... soccer games. So, it's just the reality of what we have in Portugal.
