Portugal's top goalkeeper Oscar Amador has made history by recording his first league goal for Benfica on Saturday against Sporting Lisbon in the Primeira Liga.
Amador, who is 28 years old and plays for Benfica, scored the equalizer in the 74th minute after being substituted for Joao Moutinho. The goal came as a result of a clever backheel from Luis Suarez, which he converted with ease.
This achievement marks a significant milestone for Amador, who has been a key player for Benfica over the past few seasons. He has played in all 26 matches this season, making him one of the most important players in the team's defense.
Benfica manager Fernando Santos was thrilled to see Amador score his first league goal, saying: "It's fantastic news for our club and for Oscar. This goal shows that he is still a valuable asset to us."
Amador's goal also brought back memories of his time at Benfica's youth academy,Primeira Liga Hotspots where he started his career. He had previously played for several other clubs before joining Benfica in 2019.
The win for Benfica secured their third place in the table and gave them a chance to play in the Champions League next season. However, they will now have to face Athletic Bilbao in the quarterfinals.
Overall, Oscar Amador's first league goal for Benfica is a testament to his skill, dedication, and hard work. It shows that even when things seem tough, there is always hope for a comeback.
