Sergio Conceicao ran 31 miles back to Braga after his team's cup win
Sporting Braga manager Sergio Conceicao celebrated his side securing their place in the Taca de Portugal final by keeping a promise to the team by jogging 31 miles back home.
A 1-1 second leg draw against Rio Ave saw the Portuguese side book their place in the final but before the match started, the former Lazio winger promised he would run home from the stadium should Braga progress.
Despite being 3-0 up from the first leg, Conceicao still felt the need to put his body on the line with the bet and he duly delivered.
'It's not easy working for me. I'm a very demanding coach,' Conceicao said.
'It's a deserved reward for the players.'
Sporting Lisbon are Braga's opponents in the final.
