Trio strike as Braga move on

Matheus, Roland Linz and Luís Aguiar all found the target as SC Braga completed a comfortable two-legged victory over Sivasspor on home soil.

Matheus opener
Jorge Jesus's side started the game in dominant mood as they looked to build on the 2-0 lead they took from the first leg. Braga put in some dangerous set-pieces, and while home goalkeeper Eduardo was forced to make a smart save after 28 minutes to deny Musa Aydın, Braga were in front by half-time, with Moisés setting Matheus up to score following Luís Aguiar's free-kick just before the interval.

Penalty converted
Sivasspor were not dispirited, and almost equalised after the break with Eduardo being forced to make saves from Sérgio Pacheco and Bayar Faruk. However, Linz made matters more complicated for the visitors on 56 minutes, scoring Braga's second following good build-up play from Wender and Matheus. Sivasspor's misery was complete after 70 minutes as Uruguayan Luís Aguiar converted from the spot after goalkeeper Akın Vardar was adjudged to have fouled Matheus.
