Newcastle United missed out on the Eusebio Cup in Portugal on Tuesday evening after Henrique Araujo's 89th-minute goal saw the hosts lift the pre-season trophy. Eddie Howe used almost his entire squad for the encounter, making 11 changes at half-time after a ferocious opening 45 minutes.
Miguel Almiron found the net twice in the first-half as Newcastle pegged Benfica back twice before the interval. But the second period was a quieter affair before Joelinton picked up a red card after two yellow cards. Araujo made the Magpies pay with a late goal to secure the trophy for the Portuguese side.
