Liga Intercalar First Round

Benfica opened up their Liga Intercalar campaign with a loss against Mafra by the score of 1-0.
Mafra who currently leads the competition, after beating both Benfica and Sporting, are also the leaders of Second Division Serie D(third flight)and fielded their best 11.
Benfica on the other hand, was coached by Juniors coach, and old Benfica glory Joao Alves, and did not dress any player from the senior squad. Some of the Junior players in action that you might have heard of were: Yartey, Lassama Camara, David Simao, and Nelson Oliveira, who as you may recall, did Benfica's whole pre-season with the team.
