Braga 1-0 Dinimo Minsk - Advantage Warriors in the Conference League Qualifiers | OneFootball

Braga beat Dinimo Minsk 1-0 in a dull Conference League qualifier at the Quarry.

The gulf in class was evident from the opening minute, the only question was when Braga would take the lead. Pau Victor looked most likely to break the deadlock before the deadlock was broken on the stroke of half-time.

Gabriel Silva got past Hleb Hurban and fired a shot that took a deflection and was handled by Aleksei Ivanov, referee Christian-Petru Ciochirca pointing to the spot where Ricardo Horta sent the ball straight down the middle.

Fran Navarro went close to converting a late cross from Victor Gomez but the result was a justified one, the Warriors ending the contest with 73% possession but doing little with the ball.

The second leg will take place in Bulgaria next week where the Portuguese club will be overwhelming favourites to advance to the play-offs.
