Europa League 4/28/2011.

The all-Portuguese leg between Benfica and Braga ended 2-1 with the Eagles looking relatively good. All of the goals came in the second half with Jardel opening the scoring in the 50th. Vandinho equalized for Braga three minutes later but it was to no avail as Oscar Cardozo struck a sweet free-kick in the 59th. In the Iberian showdown, Porto crushed Villarreal 5-1 despite falling behind during stoppage time of the first half. Falcao equalized for Porto in the 49th before Fredy Guarin struck Porto into the lead in the 61st. Falcao then tacked on a trio of goals to make it 5-1 when the referee drew the game to a close. The next legs look quite straightforward, especially in Porto's case; Benfica v.s. Braga on the other hand may have some surprises though!
