Watch: Alvaro Fernandez scores first goal for Benfica in 3-1 win over Farense

Manchester United loanee Alvaro Fernandez has scored his first goal for Benfica after a disappointing week for the Portuguese giants.

With winning the league practically impossible on top of Europa League elimination, the best Benfica can hope for is Champions League qualification by finishing in second place.

The wing-back received a cross from Angel Di Maria, controlled it, made a cut and finished perfectly with his right foot.
