Lisbon, Portugal, Sept 12: Nuno Gomez scored a double to lead Braga to a 3-1 win over 10-man Gil Vicente on Sunday in the Portuguese league.


Gomez came off the bench in the second half and soon punched home a rebound for Braga's 62nd-minute opener.

A minute later Gil Vicente defender Eder was sent off with a red card for a foul on Braga striker Lima.

Helder Barbosa capitalized on the advantage 10 minutes later to extend the hosts' lead, and Gomez capped Braga's third win of the season in injury time.

The undefeated Braga is level on points with second-place Benfica, two points behind defending champion FC Porto.

Also, Jose Schaffer's 69th-minute goal gave Leiria its first victory of the season with a 1-0 win over Beira Mar.

Maritimo beat Rio Ave 2-1, and Feirense edged Olhanense 2-1. AP
