Benfica's goal scoring history is a testament to the club's rich tradition and enduring legacy in football. Over the years, Benfica has produced some of the greatest players and teams in the sport, and their goal scoring prowess has been no exception.
One player who stands out for his contributions to Benfica's goal scoring record is Di María. The Argentine winger joined the Lisbon giants in the summer of 2017 from Paris Saint-Germain, and he quickly made an impact on the team. In just one season at Benfica, Di María scored 9 goals and provided 8 assists, helping the club to win the Primeira Liga title and reach the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals.
Di María's performances were not limited to the league table, as he also played a crucial role in the club's European campaign, where he scored twice against FC Barcelona in the Round of 16. His impressive performance earned him the nickname "El Pibe de Oro" (Golden Boy), which reflected his exceptional talent and potential.
Despite his success at Benfica, Di María has since left the club to join Manchester United, but his contribution to the club's goal scoring record will always be remembered. As he looks ahead to his next challenge, it will be interesting to see what kind of impact he can have on the Premier League and beyond.
