In Matchday 6 of the Primeira Liga, Benfica defeated Aviz 3-0 away from home, with Sudakov, Pavlidis, and Frano Ivanović scoring respectively. Mourinho thus successfully claimed his first win since returning to Portugal.
According to post-match statistics, this game marks Mourinho’s first Primeira Liga victory with a team since he left Porto in the summer of 2004—ending a 21-year gap. His last win in charge of Benfica dates back to the more distant December 2000: in that match (Matchday 13 of the 2000-01 Primeira Liga season), Benfica beat Sporting CP, also with a 3-0 scoreline.
