For soccer fans and lovers of big European matches, there is a must-see game this Friday evening. Two title contenders face off in a classic Portuguese soccer match: Benfica Lisbon vs. Sporting Lisbon. The Eagles need a win. They must make up some of their six-point deficit by the end of regulation time. No matter how they do it, a win is essential when the final whistle blows.
Lisbon has other ideas. A win would allow the visitors to bounce back and catch up with the leaders. In addition, tension has been building since Lisbon's narrow victory in the Portuguese Super Cup last summer. With so much at stake, it promises to be a hard-fought match from the first to the last second of what is usually an explosive encounter.
