Benfica's Juniors beat Frankfurt's Eintracht today by the score of 4-2 to clinch a spot in the semifinals where they will meet the winner of bracket B. Most likely Liverpool who currently leads bracket B with 6 points.
Benfica leads Bracket C with 6 points, 4 points ahead of second place Guadalajara from Mexico, a team that Benfica will meet on the last fixture of group stages.
Benfica's 1-0 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps, came at the expense of David Simao's and his 35yd strike. David Simao has often been part of the the senior team training squad.
On the score sheet against Eintracht were Fillipe Bastos, Toumany, Demel e Wang.
As you may recall, Bastos has been training with the senior squad ever since Benfica acquired him. The Brazilian u-19 national team captain, missed the signing deadline stipulated by the Portuguese League by a couple of days, due to his birthday and Benfica was unable to sign the player as a senior. Joao Alves decided to take Bastos to the Dallas Cup where he apparently has been dominating the competition from the defensive mid slot.
Next Match will be on Wednesday the 19th where Benfica will meet Guadalajara at Pizza Hut park the home of MLS' FC Dallas.
