Sven-Goran Eriksson was received by Toni, this Thursday, at Humberto Delgado Airport, in Lisbon, after they had worked together at Benfica, ending up being questioned about his special presence in the European duel against Olympique Marseille, scheduled for this Thursday, by journalists present at the location.

"It is always a great pleasure to see Toni. A great friend, great coach, great ex-player", he began by saying in statements to RTP.

"I haven't been here for a long time. There is a new generation, let's see. It is always nice to see Benfica", he also confessed.

It should be noted that the former Swedish coach has cancer in its terminal phase, having less than a year to live, so, after the great tribute from Liverpool at Anfield, Benfica is already preparing another moment of tribute on the pitch of Luz, during the interval of the first leg of the 'quarters' of the Europa League.
