Benfica won the Portuguese Cup on Sunday,
beating Vitoria Guimaraes 2-1 in the final to
clinch a domestic double after they had
earlier retained the league title.
Mexican striker Raul Jimenez put the Lisbon
giants ahead early in the second half at the
national stadium at Jamor, near the
Portuguese capital, following in to score after
a Jonas shot had been saved.
Eduardo Salvio then headed in a Nelson
Semedo cross to make it 2-0, before the South
African Bongani Zungu headed in a late
consolation for Guimaraes, who finished
fourth in the league.
It is the 26th time that Benfica have won the
Cup, more than any other club, and the first
time they have won the double since 2014.
