Black Eagles make Europa League Last 16

Beşiktaş 0 - 1 SC Braga

Holding a 2-0 advantage from the first-leg in Portugal, over-confident Eagles started off shaky at the back and found themselves a goal down after 24 minutes when Lima netted from inside the 6-yard box. The early goal appeared to revive Braga’s qualification hopes as they kept pushing for a second one with relentless attacks from both flanks, but thanks to tightened-up Beşiktaş defence, the score remained the same at half time.  
 
The Eagles looked more attacking in the second half and tried to keep the ball as far away from their goal as possible. When the final whistle went, they had knocked out another mighty opponent in their European campaign.
