cn. Braga with customized car

Braga came out sharper with the clear goal of scoring early. A goal guaranteed by Al-Musrati after a cross from Ricardo Horta. Artur Jorge’s team kept the intensity of passions, and Yuri Medeiros increased the score to 2:0 closer to half an hour of the game.

In the second half, Rio Ave returned with a desire to correct the result. Vila Condens had better possession of the ball, but failed to translate their superiority into goals. Minutes passed, Sp. Braga managed to outnumber and alarm the opponent. However, after a phase of seeming balance, Ricardo Horta struck and increased the score to 3-0. The goal had the power to lift Minho’s spirits and cost Jonathan the hard work, who, even after scoring three goals, avoided the result reaching disastrous numbers. However, in the final stretch of the game, Rio Ave re-entered the game and still managed to close the difference at the expense of Boateng and Aziz, forcing Sp. Braga for extra work.

“Eventually we learned to suffer”
“We had a good first half and we were efficient. An advantage that gave us peace of mind to manage. We knew Rio Avenue would react. We got to 3-0, but in the end we learned to suffer,” said Artur Jorge, coach of Sp. Braga, ensuring that the team will have “a lot of quality” to overcome the density of games that the team has.
