Benfica CH Cruises Past a Ghostly RC EKOTTO in One-Sided Affair
What we witnessed today was less of a football match and more of a training session for Benfica CH, who spent 90 minutes practicing their aim while RC EKOTTO seemed to be auditioning for a role in a silent horror movie. With zero shots—cadrés or otherwise—the RC EKOTTO squad spent the afternoon treating the pitch like a wrestling ring, racking up six fouls and a yellow card while barely remembering that the object of the game is to actually touch the ball. ⚽
For the first seventy minutes, Benfica CH looked like a group of frustrated teenagers throwing rocks at a brick wall. Despite five shots on target and a flurry of missed opportunities, they couldn't find the net until the dam finally broke. A well-deserved goal in the 70th minute opened the floodgates, followed quickly by a clinical corner kick in the 74th minute that put the game to bed. It was a masterclass in patience for Benfica CH, though one wonders if they would have scored at all if their opponents had actually bothered to show up to defend. 🙄
By the time the final whistle blew, RC EKOTTO had little to show for their efforts other than a bruised reputation and a collection of fouls that would make a rugby player blush. Benfica CH walks away with a comfortable 2-0 victory, having dominated every blade of grass without ever really being challenged. It was a dismal display from RC EKOTTO, a team that clearly needs to spend less time practicing their tackling and a lot more time learning how to kick a ball in the general direction of the opponent's goal.
