Sporting Braga suffer first defeat in Portugal

November 8, 2009

Sporting Braga finally suffered their first defeat of the season on Saturday, losing 1-0 at Vitoria Guimaraes.

Having won eight of their nine previous matches, the remaining ending undecided, Braga were expected to do equally well at Vitoria.

But it wasn’t meant to be for the Portuguese leaders, as the only goal of the match came from Vitoria’s Yves Desmarets in the 30th minute.

Braga risk having to share their lead with Benfica after the Lisbon outfit host Naval 1° de Maio on Monday.
