The season in the domestic league has been flawless for Benfica so far. After four games played in the Liga BPI, the reigning champions are tied with city rivals Sporting and Braga in second place. The goal difference of 15:0 speaks for the defensive line of the Portuguese women. However, coach Patão’s team suffered a 9-0 defeat against FC Barcelona after a successful qualification in the first Champions League game. This puts the Portuguese in fourth place in Group D.
