Casa Pia vs Benfica

Benfica made light work of Casa Pia at the Estádio Nacional on Monday, 17 August 2026, running out 0-7 winners in a game that was effectively decided long before the final whistle. Two goals inside the first half set the tone, and the visitors barely let up from there, piling on chance after chance while Casa Pia struggled to get out of their own half. By the end, the shot count told its own story - 20 attempts to just 3, with eight of Benfica's efforts forcing saves or finding the net compared to none at all from the hosts. There was little Casa Pia could do about the gulf in quality on the night. They saw only 36% of the ball and never really threatened to build any pressure of their own, managing a single corner across the ninety minutes. For Benfica, it was a statement result to open the campaign, the kind of scoreline that will have their supporters dreaming big, while Casa Pia will need to regroup fast after such a chastening evening at home.

Casa Pia 0-7 Benfica was the final score at Estádio Nacional, in a game where Benfica did enough across the ninety minutes to deserve the three points.

The shot count told a similar story, with 3 attempts from Casa Pia against 20 from Benfica over the course of the game. It was not always comfortable for Benfica, and Casa Pia pushed for a way back into the game, but the result stood.
