TRAINING IN PROGRESS STORY: Benfica trained in Seixal, Portugal on Monday (October 20) ahead of their Champions League match in England against Newcastle on Tuesday (October 21). The Portuguese will travel to England aiming to get their first points in their third match after having lost against Qarabag and Chelsea. Coach Jose Mourinho returned to Benfica last month 25 years after his first stint, inheriting a team unbeaten in their opening four league games with three wins and a draw. He has overseen two wins and a draw in his first three league matches in charge but lost 1-0 against one of his old clubs, Chelsea, in the Champions League. (Production: Nina Lopez)
