I agree with Miroslav's comment.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Yavor Dimitrov: I could not agree more. As for Miroslav's comment on no one ever using it in English speaking countries, I beg to differ. "Benefit match" is a standard collocation recorded in a number of dictionaries.

disagree  Miroslav Cvetanov: "Testimonial match" or "Testimonial" (informal) is the correct term used in football context. No one ever uses "Benefit match" in English speaking countries.
