The turnaround came with Kvaratskhelia picking up the rebound (66′).
Monaco didn’t stop dreaming. But Teze’s goal came at 91′.

Benfica ignored the “Bernabéu factor” to have a stronger start, causing problems down the flanks.
With several absences from midfield forward, Real was relying on Vini.
It was lethal Benfica who struck first, thanks to Rafa Silva after Courtois prevented an own goal by Asencio (14′).
But the response came quickly at 16, with Tchouameni finishing Valverde’s pass.
The first half also saw a Real goal disallowed, more Vini Jr. creating chances, and Courtois frustrating Richard Ríos.
Benfica didn’t give up.
But there was a Vini Jr. on the other side.
He received from Valverde, gave Otamendi no chance, and scored (80′).
A goal that sealed the qualification of a depleted Real against a valiant Benfica.
