With this, even Marco Silva smiled: the brilliant goal by Benfica built by two wizards

CNN Portugal9 September 2026 at 22:07

During the beginning of the season, a doubt arose over who should play: Does Prestianni play or does Schjelderup play? The Argentine made a good start with the team, while the Norwegian demonstrated technical quality and magic on the pitch.

The answer to this question came on a Wednesday, when both players ended up being used on the pitch at the same time, something that resulted in a great play.

The result was a goal built through a beautiful combination between the two players, described as a brilliant goal. The collaboration between the two wizards, as they are referred to in the title, was enough to elicit a smile even from coach Marco Silva.
