Vitória kick off UEFA Conference League campaign with 3-1 win over NK Celje

Vitória began the league phase of the UEFA Conference League in fine fashion with a 3-1 home win against last season’s nemesis in the same competition NK Celje.

The result flattered the Slovenian outfit. Goals by three of Vitória’s Silva’s – Samu, Gustavo and Tiago – got the job done, but the hosts missed a glut of chances to increase the score.

Aljoša Matko scored a fine individual effort in stoppage time for Celje. More to follow.
