Real Madrid and Benfica are set to face off again on Tuesday after Benfica’s dramatic 4-2 victory in their last Champions League encounter, which featured a last-minute goal from goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin. This win, orchestrated by former Madrid coach José Mourinho, secured Benfica’s playoff spot while Madrid missed out on automatic qualification. Mourinho believes his team can eliminate Madrid but acknowledges they must perform nearly perfectly to do so. Other playoff matches include Paris Saint-Germain at Monaco, Galatasaray hosting Juventus, and Borussia Dortmund facing Atalanta.
