He “cleaned” Estrella Amadora in the second half and Braga was in third place. The “Arsenalistas” imposed 3-0 on the newcomers to the Primeira Liga at the “Monumental” for the 24th matchday of the Portuguese championship and “caught” in the trio Porto, which has one match less than the 2011 Europa League finalists and the Sunday is the derby with Benfica, with the home team barely above the relegation zone.
The scorers of the winners were Banza with a penalty in 57′, Bruma in 84′ and Roger Fernandes in 93′.
Firmly in fifth place remained Guimaraes, who comfortably won 3-1 at home to Estoril and left them marginally out of the relegation zone.
The chance to get closer to the European places was missed by Moreirense, who conceded 0-0 to Rio Ave and gave them the chance to escape with +1 from the danger zone.
