Machia: Cameroon striker leads Braga to victory over Sporting CP

Farida Machia was on target as Sporting Braga defeated Sporting CP 3-0 in Sunday's Portuguese Women's Cup Round of 16 contest.

Having bowed 4-2 at home to Sporting CP on January 5, Braga were hoping to avenge their first defeat of the year against their rivals in the Cup competition at the CGD Aurélio Pereira Stadium.

Braga started off on a high as Machia fired them in front inside the first minute of the encounter, her first goal of the year before Laura Luis doubled the advantage on the half-hour mark.
