Braga earn narrow first-leg lead against Panathinaikos in Champions League play-off | OneFootball
Braga beat Panathinaikos 2-1 in a entertaining and hard-fought encounter at the Quarry tonight as both teams attempt to make the Champions League group stage after an absence of more than a decade.
Artur Jorge’s team struggled to get their game going before the break, but Abel Ruiz and Álvaro Djaló scored in the second half to put Braga in command, with Rony Lopes seeing a golden chance to make it 3-0 saved by Italian goalkeeper Alberto Brignoli.
