Friday may have marked the final day of the international break with regards to Premier League football, but the action had already resumed on the continent.
One game which may have caught the eyes of English fans was the clash between Braga and Benfica which pitted fourth against third in the Primeira Liga. The reasons for interest in this fixture were twofold: firstly, Liverpool supporters may have been keen to have a closer look at Benfica ahead of their Champions League semi-final; secondly, one of Europe's most in-demand strikers was in action.
The player in question was Darwin Nunez, who was only handed a spot on the bench having travelled to South America for Uruguay's World Cup qualifiers against Peru and Chile over the last fortnight. However, with his team trailing 1-0 at the interval, the 22-year-old was introduced for the second half - and he did not take long to show just what all the hype is about.
