An insanely good assist from Carlos here, as Benfica beat Belenenses Portugal 3:2, in the Primeira Liga, on 31.01.2020if we can get a taste of this in the Premier League, then this kid is going to become very famous.
This is precisely the sort of special little balls that players like Erik Lamela and Lucas Moura ought to be playing into dangerous areas. Just one of 8 assists that the 25-year-old got for his former club last season.
The first one was for Benfica as they defeated Rio Ave 3:2, this time in the Taça de Portugal, 14.01.2020. Another piece of lightening fast thinking that resulted in a goal. The second was a lovely unselfish and controlled header down for his teammate to polish off.
This time Vinícius confidently controls the ball and lays on the killer pass for the goal as Benfica beat Desportivo Aves 2:1 on 10.01.2020.
This time, it’s another canny flick from Carlos, as Benfica beat Cova da Piedade 0:4 on 18.10.2019.
All in all, this boy looks mustard.
