    Just a note about the blog, it is a live update done by someone else, so there could be multiple results revealed if you follow that blog (i.e. there already have been the premier league results revealed on the blog). I will post elements from that blog on here that relate to Freddy and Benfica.

    P. Ferreira already up in the first minute.

    Goal by Pedrinha after a glorious missed clearance by Edcarlos.

    Rui Costa misses very very close, and a few minutes later, Edcarlos has another bad giveaway that leads to danger, but no goal.

    Looks like David Luiz could have started in place of Edcarlos...

    Cardozo coming in. If the score doesn't change I see Adu coming after the break.

    -------------Butt-------------
    Nélson--Luisão--Katso--Léo
    -------------Maxi-------------
    Assis----Rui Costa----Rodriguez
    ------Makukula--Cardozo-----

    and cardozo converts the ensuing PK. Tiago Valente got redcarded...deservedly so for his 2nd yellow.

    2-1 Benfica 52nd min

    Benfica up 2-1 and a man advantage. Might be bad for Freddy, but may also be good as they have a UEFA match on Thursday, and guys like Rui Costa could use the rest.

    on a much sadder note...I am out of beer.

    Still 2-1, it was a great save off Kastouranis' shot. Di Maria and David Luiz warming up

    maybe no freddy...

    What's even sadder is that you do realize that they sent you a shirt that doesn't look right! :)

    I guess Camacho is saving Freddy for a prominent role in Thursday's match. ;)
