Goalkeeper Eduardo' Sp. Braga loses, Sp. Braga 0-1 PSG, March 19, 2009, UEFA Cup.
I really thought Braga could score one goal and win. If it was a goalless draw they had to go to penalty shootouts. Losing today, Sp. Braga won't go through to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup.

87 Jorginho in) Paulo César out) (Braga)
Hoarau was a substitute for PSG and came on in the 77th minute.
A long ball to Hoarau who was in the area. Toward his head but Eduardo thought he could stop it from reaching it by raising one of his arms. The ball was higher than he expected, no way near, Hoarau was by now behind Eduardo. Nobody on either goal post. Easily headed it to the empty net.
UEFA's description: Guillaume Hoarau heads in Clément Chantôme's deep free-kick to break the deadlock in the tie and leave Braga needing to score twice.
I can see Ibrahimovic and the Sweden team studying Eduardo in this situation.
Braga known as the "arsenalistas" could have been the 7th Portugeuse team to arrive to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup.
