Braga managed to do something Porto and Benfica could not.
Right after their, some would say, shameful defeat against Besiktas in the Europa League, Braga succeeded in beating Gil Vicente, in Barcelos. And they won emphatically, too: 3-0. (Lima scored all three goals.)
Why is this so important?
Well, of course, because Gil Vicente just handed FC Porto their first league defeat of the season, at the same venue, 3-1, and not even Benfica, the unbeaten, run-away leaders of the Portuguese Liga Sagres, could beat Gil Vicente at their stadium.
Nice achievement, but possibly meaningless unless Porto stumbles more than Braga in the remaining matchdays, and The Archbishops manage to snatch the second Champions League spot away from the Oporto giants.
