Braga coach Carvalhal rubbishes title chances: Look at how Leicester beat us

Braga coach Carlos Carvalhal has dismissed their title chances on the back of last week's thrashing by Leicester City.

The Foxes routed Braga 4-0 in their Europa League meeting.

Speaking after their impressive defeat of Benfica, Carvalhal insisted: "Title? Our priority now is Trofense.

"The way the defeat at Leicester was felt, not by us, but by the people ... It seems like a scandal to lose 4-0 in Leicester.

"Braga, playing at their maximum form in Leicester, which is of a very high level championship, the Premier League, would have a lot of difficulties to get a good result.

"People look at Braga and they are already talking big things too much."
