Benfica will face Real Madrid in the Champions League play-offs just three weeks after their dramatic league phase encounter.
On Wednesday, goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin’s 98th-minute goal earned Jose Mourinho’s side a 4-2 win against the Spanish giants, dropping them into the play-off positions.
The two-legged play-offs are for teams who finished between 9th and 24th in the league phase and the first games will take place on 17-18 February, with the second round one week later.
The Puskas Arena in Budapest, Hungary will host the 2025-26 final on 30 May.
