Published: October 28, 2017James Igbekeme struck twice for Gil Vicente as they steamrolled over Benfica B 4-0 in the Portuguese Segunda Liga encounter on Saturday afternoon.
The Roosters wasted little time to get going as Jonathan Toro put àlvaro Magalhães's men ahead as early as the sixth minute, profiting from a mistake to score the curtain raiser.
The Nigerian then added a superb second seven minutes later to keep his side coasting away from their hapless visitors who were tactically dire.
