One player's double powers Braga past Rio Ave | OneFootball

Ricardo Horta broke the game open in the 73rd minute with a close-range finish, as Braga beat Rio Ave 3-0.

Arriving unmarked, Horta met Florian Grillitsch's pass and swept in from close range (73.). That movement into the six-yard area finally converted Braga's pressure into a cushion the visitors could not chase down.

He then sealed it, timing his run to collect João Moutinho's through ball before drilling low into the far corner in the third minute of second half stoppage time. It capped a clinical night built on smart positioning and clean striking.

Horta finished with four attempts, three on target, plus two key passes and seven touches in the box, underlining how he linked attacks and then applied the finishing touch when it mattered most.

With that influence, Braga visit Gil Vicente next. Rio Ave host Moreirense next.
