Darwin Nunez slotted in the winner as Benfica beat Ajax in Amsterdam to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.
After an impressive display in first leg ended 2-2 in Lisbon, the return was far more threatening only for the host to concede a goal from Nunez’s strike.
Ajax initially was on top of their game with Sebastien Haller putting the ball at the back of the net early on, but Dusan Tadic was offside in the build-up.
The end the game had Benfica supporters chanting as their players enjoyed celebrations on the pitch, with the Portuguese outfit reaching the last eight of the Champions League for the first time since the 2015-16 campaign.
