Vasco Matos, Estoril's coach, spoke about the upcoming game against Benfica, which takes place tomorrow at the Estádio da Luz. The coach addressed the matchup with the eagles in a preview marked by the pressure of recent results.

The coach acknowledged that it hasn't been an easy month for the team, recognizing the difficulties faced during this period. This statement reveals the complicated moment Estoril is going through in the competition.

Tomorrow's game represents a significant challenge for Estoril, who will face one of the main forces of Portuguese football in their own home. The trip to Benfica's ground is traditionally one of the most difficult matches on the calendar.

Vasco Matos sought to convey confidence in the team's recovery, although the current context does not favor the objectives of the Estoril side.
