The Primeira Liga served up another fantastic spectacle on the 12th May 2024, with SL Benfica decimating FC Arouca with a resounding 5-0 win at their home ground.
One of the crucial factors that resulted in this discrepancy was Benfica's ruthless efficiency in front of goal. They got their five goals from a minimal number of shots on target, indicating a clinical and accurate finish with each opportunity. Benfica's first three goals came in the first half itself, indicating their domination from the onset. This was a remarkable demonstration of their attacking prowess as they tore apart Arouca's defence time and again.
Another factor worth examining is the number of offsides per team. SL Benfica had a total of 6 offsides which suggests a highly aggressive approach with a high defensive line. On the contrary, FC Arouca had only one offside, highlighting Benfica's square and disciplined defensive setup that prevented Arouca's attackers from finding any room behind their stronghold.
Both teams had the same number of corner kicks, which insinuits that possession was considerable in the midfield and not just in Benfica's attacking third. Moreover, both teams played a physically demanding game with Benfica committing 9 fouls and Arouca committing 7. Also, each team picked up two yellow cards reflecting the intensity and competitiveness of the game.
Despite the high number of fouls, it is notable that the game maintained its discipline with no red cards shown. This data clearly shows the strict control the referee had over the game and the professional conduct exhibited by both teams in the face of the tough contest.
In conclusion, SL Benfica's clinical finishing, disciplined defence, and aggressive attacking approach were the main decisive factors in their thumping 5-0 victory over FC Arouca. Although possession might have been balanced and the game physically demanding, Benfica's superior efficiency in the final third was the definitive factor that led to this one-sided result. The impressive performance that Benfica exhibited leaves them in a strong position for their forthcoming fixtures, while FC Arouca must reassess their defensive strategies.
