In his last matches with Benfica, Argentine Ángel Di María is saying goodbye in style: this Friday he scored a 'double' in the 6-0 win over Auckland City at the Inter&Co Stadium on the second matchday of Group C of the FIFA Club World Cup.

'Fideo', who will play for Rosario Central again after this competition, scored the first goal of the match with a subtle penalty execution at the end of the first half, when Benfica couldn't break through goalkeeper Nathan Garrow's resistance.

Then, the match was interrupted for almost three hours due to weather conditions in Orlando, which probably gave the Argentine idol of the 'Eagles' a break to play the entire second half.

Benfica was much more forceful in the second half (where they scored five of the six goals) and Di María added another penalty goal in this competition to put the finishing touch on a win where Pavlidis, Renato Sanches, and Barreiro (2) also scored.

It's worth remembering that Ángel Di María had also scored from the same spot against Boca Juniors in the debut, so he is currently the top scorer in the Club World Cup along with Jamal Musiala, with three goals each.
