Futebol/Moçambique: Petro de Luanda na final do Encontro de Campeões O Petro de Luanda venceu hoje o Ferroviário de Maputo por 1-0, em Maputo, qualificando-se para a final do torneio Encontro de Gigantes, no qual também participam o Benfica e o Costa do Sol, da capital moçambicana. O único golo da partida disputada no Estádio da Machava, apontado por Joni aos 32 minutos, garantiu aos angolanos a presença final do torneio, na qual terão como oponente o vencedor do jogo Benfica-Costa do Sol, que começou às 14h30 de Lisboa. Com capacidade para 35 mil espectadores, o Estádio da Machava apresentava uma lotação razoável, apesar de hoje ser um dia normal de trabalho. A presença do Benfica na capital moçambicana tem assumido proporções de um verdadeiro "furacão", com milhares de pessoas a seguirem os "encarnados" na agenda social que complementa os seus jogos no torneio comemorativo do 50º aniversário do Costa do Sol, ex-Benfica de Lourenço Marques. Moçambique tem, de resto, um peso assinalável na história do Benfica, por ser a terra de origem de jogadores emblemáticos do clube, como Eusébio, Mário Coluna, e Shéu Han.
