Portugal: Simon Banza puts Braga back on the podium

Last updated Feb 20, 2024

He made a winning return to the club after the CAN. Simon Banza, who scored midweek in the European Cup, ahead of Qarabag, did it again last Sunday in the championship. The Congolese striker contributed to Braga’s success against Farense in a match counting for the 22nd day of the Portuguese championship.

At kick-off, Simon Banza started at the forefront of the attack. After a sterile first period, marked by a missed penalty by Joao Moutinho just before the break. Returning from the locker room, Simon Banza opened the scoring after the hour mark, on a serve from Roger Fernandes. Entering the last quarter of an hour, Mohamed Belloumi put the two teams back on level terms. And 5 minutes from the end, Cher Ndour restored the advantage and at the same time offered victory to Sporting Club Braga.

Leopard Banza played the entire match. He scored his 15th goal of the season in Liga Nos, and is now second in the kingdom of scorers, behind the Swede Viktor Gyokeres. Braga takes fourth place in the standings with 43 points, 5 lengths behind FC Porto who have a game in hand.
