Match report
Nacional beat SC Braga 1-0 at Estádio da Madeira after Miguel Baeza’s 19th-minute goal settled the match. The finish stood after a VAR check, and Nacional held on from there.
Baeza opened the scoring in the 19th minute from Song Min-kyu’s assist, with VAR confirming the goal. That left Nacional 1-0 up at half-time.
SC Braga responded with three changes at the break, sending on Gabriel Martínez Aguilera, João Moutinho and Mario Dorgeles, and later brought on Fra Navarro, Denis Huseinbasic and more attacking options as they chased an equaliser. Nacional made two changes on 68 minutes and two more on 78 minutes, then replaced Baeza on 86 minutes to protect the lead. Braga had the ball for 72% of the match and 542 passes to Nacional’s 226, but they only managed two shots on target from 20 efforts, while Nacional put four of their eight shots on target and took four corners to Braga’s seven.
Nacional’s 1-0 win came with xG of 0.51 to Braga’s 1.42, and the visitors also had more offsides, 3 to 2. Braga had 3 saves to Nacional’s 2, while Nacional committed 18 fouls to Braga’s 12.
Chico Gonçalves was booked in the 33rd minute for Nacional. Sergio Barcia went into the book on 79 minutes for SC Braga, Stavros Gavriel was booked on 86 minutes for Nacional, and Gustaf Lagerbielke was cautioned three minutes into stoppage time.
