Barcelona received its second 3 goal in the Champions League in a row from Benfica.
Benfica were magnificent from start to finish, as the team came with a game plan and executed it perfectly, holding Barca at bay after Nunez gave them the early lead.
Once Nunez scored his second goal and Garcia received his second yellow card and later red card, the game was over for the visitors.
Benfica made Barca look toothless, limiting the Spanish giant to a single shot in the second half.
Jesus’ men go second in Group E on four points, two behind Bayern who have dispatched Dynamo Kiev 5-0 while Barca sits bottom.
In other champions league matches played within the day, Manchester United beats Villarreal 2-1 with Ronaldo the hero of the game, Juventus win Chelsea 1-0, and Atlanta beat young boys 1-0 among others.
