Pedro Sousa, executive director of CM Rádio, commented on the upcoming knockout round between Benfica and Milan in the Europa League. In his intervention, he referred to the fact that players Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot, from Milan, would probably not be able to sleep if they knew they would have to play in Barreiro.

Sousa used the reference to Barreiro to comment on Marco Silva's management, coach of Benfica, particularly regarding the use of player Aursnes. The comment comes in the context of anticipating the duel between the two European teams.

Marco Silva's team is thus preparing to face Milan in a European knockout round, at a time when the Benfica coach continues to manage his squad and decide which players to use in each competition.
