SC Braga in great League and European position – Portuguese Primeira Liga News
SC Braga find themselves in prime position in the Portuguese Primeira Liga as they lie 3rd in the standings and are faring even better in the UEFA Europa League as they are currently on top of their group.
The Archbishops have made a great start to the 2011/2012 campaign. With their current form, they are likely to end up with silverware in May.
Leonardo Jardim’s men have not only been making the headlines in the season but even in the summer break. The club made the airwaves when they pulled off a major coup and secured the services of Portuguese International, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nuno-Gomes-c28237.
The attacker was out of contract at Benfica and the clubs weren’t ready to offer him a new contract. With the aim of landing a berth in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 team for Euro 2012, Gomes made the switch to Estadio AXA.
His brace in the last game reflects on his renaissance he has achieved in his new surroundings and the great piece of business by the club.
The plethora of striking options at helm has increased the overall quality of the team and has closed the margin other clubs had on SC Braga.
Now boasting Nuno Gomes in addition to other players, the Portuguese outfit are a talented team that could make it into the UEFA Champions league next term, if they carry on with their good work.
Standing on 3rd place in the Liga Sagres table, the Minhos are not only in European contention but are also level on points with their arch-rivals, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 and Benfica.
Currently reaping the benefits of their good start to the Primeira Liga, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/SC-Braga-c40460 have also been a force to be reckoned with in Europe’s 2nd tier competition.
They are top of their group and are yet to lose a game in the competition. Last year’s runners-up can look to emulate their feats and perhaps go one step further in this year’s edition of the UEFA Europa League.
