Decisive figure carries Braga past Vitória S.C.

He buried the spot kick into the roof of the net after a foul in the area (17.).

He then slipped the pass for Ricardo Horta to restore the lead (32.). After the restart, he arrived in the box to sweep in the eventual winner from Horta's pass (57.).

He ended with three shots on target, created two big chances and won possession 10 times, underlining his influence in and out of possession.

His movement between the lines and sharp combinations, especially with Horta, kept Vitória S.C. unsettled and gave Braga control of the game's key moments.

Braga rise from fifth to fourth. They visit Nacional next. Vitória S.C. host Alverca.
