Login and login to Laravel 5.7

Question

I’m developing a project in Laravel, but I’m having a hard time understanding how user login and authentication works to redirect to Dashboard.

I have a table in the database called "user", which contains the following columns: id, name, user, password and email.

The authentication has to be done through e-mail and password, which are already registered. The password is hashed MD5, being created through Phpmyadmin.

Admincontroller was created. Below:

public function index(Request $request){

    $credentials = $request->only('email', 'senha');

    if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) {
        // Authentication passed...
        return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
    } else {
        return redirect()->intended('index');
    }

    }

Model Admin was also created. Below:

class Admin extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = ['nome', 'usuario', 'senha', 'email', 'admin'];
    protected $guarded = ['id','created_at', 'update_at'];
    protected $table = 'usuario';
    public $timestamps = false;
}

However, when I type the user and password from the Login screen, the following error occurs:

Method App Http Controllers Dashboardcontroller::store does not exist.

My Login view looks like this:

    <div class="account-pages mt-5 mb-5">
        <div class="container">
            <div class="row justify-content-center">
                <div class="col-lg-5">
                    <div class="card">

                        <!-- Logo -->
                        <div class="card-header pt-4 pb-4 text-center bg-primary">
                            <a href="index.html">
                                <span><img src="site/img/logo-login.png" alt=""></span>
                            </a>
                        </div>

                        <div class="card-body p-4">
                            <form action="{{ url('dashboard') }}" method="POST">
                            {{ csrf_field() }}
                                <div class="form-group">
                                    <label for="emailaddress">E-mail</label>
                                    <input class="form-control" type="email" id="emailaddress" name="email" placeholder="Digite seu e-mail" autofocus>
                                </div>

                                <div class="form-group">
                                    <a href="pages-recoverpw.html" class="text-muted float-right"><small>Esqueceu sua senha?</small></a>
                                    <label for="password">Senha</label>
                                    <input class="form-control" type="password" name="senha" id="password" placeholder="Digite sua senha">
                                </div>

                                <div class="form-group mb-3">
                                    <div class="custom-control custom-checkbox">
                                        <input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input" id="checkbox-signin" checked>
                                        <label class="custom-control-label" for="checkbox-signin">Lembrar- me</label>
                                    </div>
                                </div>

                                <div class="form-group mb-0 text-center">
                                    <button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit"> Entrar </button>
                                </div>

                            </form>
                        </div> <!-- end card-body -->
                    </div>
                    <!-- end card -->


                </div> <!-- end col -->
            </div>
            <!-- end row -->
        </div>
        <!-- end container -->
    </div>
    <!-- end page -->

@endsection

What are the next steps I should take? Can someone help me with this?

Just so you understand, what would be the point of doing it this way? The Laravel documentation is very good, as soon as you run the php Artisan make:auth command it already creates the whole authentication system for you. It already creates the Authcontroller, protects the routes through the middleware and etc. https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/authentication P.s. MD5 Password? For security use the standard of bcrypt.
