The unbeatable European side

After Barcelona’s draw at Valencia there’s only one European team from the UEFA’s top ranking countries to win all matches in the awakening of the championship season. It comes from Portugal and, somehow, I truly doubt you can guess the name of the team.
No, it´s not Champions League most appeared club Porto, and it’s not the other two more or less known side’s Sporting Lisbon and Benfica. No, try to guess?? You can’t?? It’s Braga usual regular in the former UEFA Cup that failed the playoff for the new Europa League.
With a more effective than attractive style of play, Braga can proudly call themselves the only domestic league team with seven back-to-back wins in 2009, with 12 scored goals but only three conceded. There are few things to say, but it’s nice to see ‘little clubs’ with high hopes, Braga’s coach is former Porto’s star-striker Domingos that leads a bunch of Portuguese football veterans on the field, such as international’s Meyong, Eduardo or Alberto Rodriguez and top form Brazilians Alan, Mossoró and Moisés. They play on a hybrid 4x3x3/4x2x3x1 that gives good defensive protection and have as preferred score a 1-0 win.
Well, another good thing from Braga his the city itself, on the northwest of the country, the town as an awesome cultural aspect, especially related to the country’s obsessive religious past. By these days they’ll probably praise to the God of football…
