Youngster Goncalo Moreira on Wednesday impressed in the best possible way in the youth league, scoring both goals for Benfica against Feyenoord.
Youth leagues are often a great opportunity to see young talent flourish. At the Benfica level, figures such as Joao Felix and Antonio Silva have emerged in this European competition, both of whom have reached the finals in the past. This season, there is another Seixal player who could explode, and that is Goncalo Moreira.

Double for Gonzalo Moreira
Seven points: This is what Benfica posted at the end of the third day of the Youth League. Today, Wednesday, the Portuguese club escaped the clutches of Feyenoord in this European under-19 competition, thanks to the victory it achieved with two goals (2-0). Two achievements are the work of one man, the young Portuguese Gonçalo Moreira. Established in a central position, the apprentice winger excelled by scoring a brilliant brace which allowed him to continue after an impressive performance this weekend.
In fact, Goncalo Moreira is not his first attempt. Commonly used within the Eagles' Under-23s, Gonzalo Moreira has already scored twice this weekend, against Santa Clara's Under-23s. In the space of just a few days, the man considered one of Benequest's greatest hopes has emerged in the best possible way.
Enough to prepare for the upcoming deadlines. In two weeks, on the next day of the Youth League, Gonzalo Moreira and his team will meet Bayern. Winner of the first two days of competition, the Bavarian club will represent a major test for the 18-year-old Portuguese, who is clearly determined to take a step forward this season.
Passionate about the Portuguese national team and youth teams, Alex Félix has been writing for Trivela.fr since the beginning of 2022. From U16 to U21 across the youth league, training the Portuguese way has been no secret for him.
