Sporting Braga held by Leixoes

Sporting Braga may well have to share their Portuguese lead again after this weekend’s games, following a 1-1 draw at Leixoes on Saturday.

Leixoes have been in dismal shape lately and are only one spot away from the danger zone.

But the troubled side received unexpected help in their match with Braga, as an own goal from Moises allowed them to take the lead after 33 minutes.

Braga did limit the damage however as Alan levelled the score with just two minutes left in regular time.

Benfica host Academica on Sunday and a win would have them share the top spot with Braga once again.
