FC Midtjylland has acquired Djé Beni and Stanley Iheancho from C.D. Mafra in the summer transfer window. The two players spent two seasons together in the Portuguese club, where they built a close relationship both on and off the pitch.
What happened?
In Wednesday's Super League match against Lyngby Boldklub, it was the two Africans who were behind FCM's only goal in the game, which ended 1-1. Beni made the assist for Ihenacho, who scored for the second game in a row.
Why is it important?
Djé Beni and Stanley Iheancho have both commented on the experience in an interview published on FC Midtjylland's own website. - It was my first assist in FC Midtjylland, so it was important. And that it was to Stanley, of course, makes it even more special.
What's next?
The next time Beni and Ihenacho get the chance to show themselves, will be on Thursday, August 20, when Midtjylland faces Croatian HNK Rijeka in a crucial Conference League qualifying match.
