Benfica vs Ajax (26th July)

[Reece]

Bit random this but I'm in Lisbon this weekend and was surprised to find this game on as a mark of respect to Eusebio.

I'm gonna catch it as the cheapest ticket is 20 euros and it's a chance to eyeball a good pool of players.

Any fellow sc'ers in Lisbon see this and fancy tagging along give us a shout!

Love to go to an Ajax game.

Yep, I'm more interested in Ajax myself as I follow Sporting. Cracking match-up mind, should be some good football on show.

Well I must report back that I was severely disappointed with this game. I know it's only pre-season but the quality level on show was quite poor. Mis-placed passes all over the gaffe, air shots, running the ball out of play.

Can't quite believe this was the dutch champions vs the portuguese champions.

I guess quite a few first teamers are missing but still. Bebe managed to get on the pitch in the 70th minute and fluff everything up that he tried - no surprise there!
