Just 10 days after securing its 32nd Portuguese Liga title, SL Benfica had reason to celebrate once again at Gillette Stadium. Four different players scored goals to lead the Portuguese champion to a 4-0 win over Khano Smith and the New England Revolution in an international friendly on a rain-soaked night in Foxborough.
Filipe Menezes, Sidnei and Cesar Peixoto gave the visitors a 3-0 lead before halftime, while Alan Kardec rounded out the scoring with the goal of the match shortly after the break, blasting a long-distance free kick just inside the right post.
