Benfica Eye Europa League Success

Description:Benfica coach Jorge Jesus expressed pride at his team's performance despite missing out on the knockout stages of the Champions League after being held to a 0-0 draw at Barcelona on matchday six. Benfica needed to win and hope Scottish side Celtic drew at home to Spartak Moscow. But the Portuguese did not and Celtic were 2-1 winners, sending them through to the last 16 of the Champions League and resigning Benfica to the Europa League. "A failure? I don't see it as a failure," Jesus said. (0:36)
