00:00From now on, it is win or go home, to reach this knockout stage, Benfica had to do something they had never done before, they beat Bayern Munich for the first time in the club's history, Chelsea who looked to be hitting their stride by the end of the group stage, can Enzo Mareska's side push on now, can they become the first English team to make it to the quarterfinals, this is game 50 of the FIFA Club World Cup,
00:28it is the jeopardy of the knockout stages, and the Brazilian club Palmeiras are already awaiting to play the winner of this one in the quarterfinal, Chelsea immediately trying to exploit the pace of Pedro Neto, up against him Samuel Dal, Neto gets the first shot at anger of this last 16 game in Charlotte, and we haven't played a minute yet.
00:53That's going to be the route through for Chelsea, direct ball was in behind the back four of Benfica, especially down this side with the pace of Neto and Dalap, the willingness to run.
01:07Bruno Lachio knows all about Chelsea and English football from his period in charge of Wolverhampton Wanderers, he played Chelsea twice, he didn't lose either of those games, they were both draws, home and away during his time as a Premier League manager.
01:20He ran into trouble there with the shape of Romeo Lavia, here is Liam Dalap, tried to cut it back for Palmer, Kukurea, patience, tried to pick his spot, and the celebrations from Antonio Silva.
01:35He didn't get to the game already.
01:40This is a chance earlier, it's Pedro Neto coming inside, he fakes to go to the far post and reverses it to Dalap at the near post.
01:49Brilliant run from Dalap, and watch this, Antonio Silva realises the problem might be that far post, gets onto the goal line, heads it away and celebrates like he scored a goal.
01:57We saw in the opening game of the group for Benfica, when they took on Bocca Juniors, they are well able to match the physical stuff.
02:07Orsonus, trying to keep tabs on Cole Palmer, that clipped the outside of the post I think.
02:14Let's have a look, he's even hit the post, or it's another brilliant save from Trubin.
02:19Cole Palmer, she's looking to sneak it at the near post.
02:21Almost does it to perfection.
02:3220 minutes in, Chelsea asking serious questions in Charlotte.
02:51Leto, almost comfortable for Casado to receive, but he's done really well to adapt.
03:01Here's Kukurea, head around by Orsonus.
03:06Palmer, chance to look up.
03:10Glorious grip on that, but good positioning from Antonio Silva.
03:14And then Kukurea barrels into Sheldroop.
03:16Now that is a free kick to Benfica.
03:20Good acceleration from Inter Fernandes to get there ahead of Otamendi.
03:33Casado pinpoints to Palmer.
03:36He kept it low, he kept it firm.
03:39He plays with the composure of a much, much older, more experienced player.
03:44I think it helps when you've got the quality and experience of Otamendi next.
03:47You're always talking to you, giving you instructions.
03:52Both of them, this tournament, have been very, very good for Benfica.
04:02Enzo Fernandes.
04:06Lavia.
04:07So many different routes of attack for this Chelsea team.
04:28Casado, we just hesitated for a moment.
04:30Borrero was in to unsettle him.
04:32Latvia keeps it moving here, though.
04:33This is Mark Kukurea, Trebbin to the rescue again.
04:38He spread his body so wide there.
04:41And the outstretched right arm.
04:44Counter-attacking opportunities that Benfica hope they'll see more of
04:47because they've had to withstand a lot of Chelsea pressure.
04:51Could watch that one all day because he makes his arm big,
04:53but the last moment he reacts and gets it up.
04:57This is Di Maria.
04:59Most of his touches in that first half, which comes to a close,
05:02have been in his own defensive half of the field.
05:04Can Benfica be more advanced in the second 45 to come?
05:08Enzo Morescu with a big halftime team talk to.
05:11Give him the...
05:12Humped on by Lavia for Cole Palmer.
05:16Dilap was ready!
05:18And Otter Mendy just steered it away from him.
05:22Big chance for Chelsea.
05:24And it could be a breakthrough.
05:26Rhys James tries to catch him out, and he does!
05:30Trebbin erected the wall.
05:33But he didn't get the right planning permission.
