Sl Benfica 2:2 Académico Viseu FC — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Benfica were held to a 2-2 draw by Académico Viseu FC in the Primeira Liga, with Gianluca Prestianni scoring once and earning a 9.7 rating as the standout midfielder, though the result leaves the Lisbon side without a defined next fixture to build on. The Eagles twice led through Vangelis Pavlidis’ tenth-minute opener and Prestianni’s 58th-minute strike, but Rúben Pereira pulled one back on 55 minutes and André Clóvis levelled on 67, with assists from Cihan Kahraman and Robinho respectively.

The turning point came in a frantic twelve-minute spell either side of the hour mark, when Académico Viseu’s quick-fire response to Pavlidis’ early goal shifted the momentum, yet Benfica’s second through Prestianni restored control before Clóvis’ equaliser undid their work. Yellow cards to Alejandro Mestanza, Anthony Correia, Georgiy Sudakov, Tomás Araújo, André Ceitil and Igor Milioransa littered a scrappy contest, but no red card or VAR intervention altered the flow.

Benfica utterly dominated the numbers, holding 62% possession and firing 28 shots to eight, with an xG of 3.05 against 1.18, yet they managed only a draw—outplayed on the stats but punished for profligacy, especially in the first half when their 2.21 xG yielded just one goal. Prestianni’s 9.7 rating, his goal and his midfield positioning made him the clear standout, though CheckLive’s model clearly favoured Benfica and the draw proved it wrong.
