Senna sets Villarreal flying
A late swerving strike from Brazilian midfielder Marcos Senna took Villarreal
CF to the brink of the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League, defeating
Group D rivals SL Benfica in a tense match at the Estadio Da Luz.
Senna strikes
The game appeared to be drifting towards a stalemate before Senna's 81st-
minute effort from 30 metres deceived Benfica's stand-in goalkeeper Rui Nereu,
who misread the flight of the ball and could only palm it into the net.
Despite the victory, Villarreal's night ended on a worrying note as their
goalscorer hobbled off in added time.
Simao returns
Benfica coach Ronald Koeman had hurried back Simao from injury, although the
Portuguese international winger was forced to play with heavy strapping on
his left thigh, which seemed to restrict his usual vibrancy. Even when he had
the chance to hit trademark free-kicks from the edge of the area, he struck
the ball gingerly, a performance which embodied that of a disappointing
Benfica team.
Scrappy affair
Neither side were able to establish much rhythm in a disjointed first half,
although it might have been different had the hosts gone ahead with their
first clear opportunity on six minutes. Manuel Fernandes curled a set-piece
deep to the far post where Luisão pulled it back but Senna was alert and got
a toe to the ball before Petit could reach it.
Early errors
As it was both teams were limiting themselves to tentatively probing the
opposition defence. Inevitably, this made mistakes the likeliest source of
any openings. Anderson made the first, allowing Diego Forlán to get in behind
him when he should have cleared. Fortunately for the Brazilian defender,
Forlan's left-foot effort could not find the bottom corner.
Geovanni lob
Mariano Barbosa, the Villarreal goalkeeper playing because of injury to first-
choice Sebastian Viera, was also caught out. He allowed himself to be closed
down after carrying the ball out of the box and if Geovanni's lob had been
more accurate, it could have been decidedly embarrassing for the reserve.
Forlan blow
Forlan had to leave the field before the hour after hurting his shin in a
tackle with Luisao. On came Luciano Figueroa, and the Argentinian
international almost scored within seconds. Jose Maria Romero's cushioned
header looked to have played him in on the edge of the area but Rui Nereu was
quickly off his line to avert the danger.
Goal disallowed
On 58 minutes Benfica thought they had scored. Nuno Gomes had the ball in the
net, nodding in Simão's cross, but he was ruled fractionally offside. It was
frustrating for the home team, who were finding it hard to break down the
visiting defence.
Double take
Twelve minutes later, the same fate befell Villarreal. Riquelme struck a
powerful low shot from outside the box that was well parried by Rui Nereu.
The rebound fell to Figueroa and the substitute slammed it into the net via
the underside of the bar, but he had advanced too far forward and his effort
was disallowed for offside.
Koeman gamble
With 20 minutes left, Koeman decided to gamble on securing victory. He sent on
the attacking pair of Mantorras and João Pereira for Georgios Karagounis and
Geovanni, and Benfica took the game to Villarreal to the delight of their
support. It was a move that failed to pay off, however, as Senna had the last
word.
