Manchester united punish braga to see themselves to the UCL knock-out
round as they beat braga 3-1 in an almost fully-dominated match by the
portugese club.The first half ended in a 0-0 stalmate scoreline which
the portugese club fully dominated.HoweverThe portugese club got a
deserved lead in the second half when evans blocked custodio's run
into the box.Alan[who has scored twice against united] stepped up to
convert the penalty into de gea's net.
In the 57th minutes,the unexpected happened as an abrupt power cut
occured forcing the game to a pause whilst the malfunction was being
checked by the officials.Power was however restored shortly as robin
van persie and rio ferdinand were brought in for danny welbeck and
jonny evans respectively.An immediate change in game was made as
united retained possesion.Parity was however restored in the match
when robin van persie looped in a precise ball over the on-rushing
goalkeeper bento.
A complete turnaround was however made when rooney was felled in the
box,himself stepped up and cooly dispatched into the braga net to give
his team the lead.It wasnt going to end there as braga were made to
experience a complete nightmare when chicharito added the third in
injury time to hand united a spot in the last 16 of the
competition,with a 100percent record.
