Milan and Dublin , Aug. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Brera Holdings PLC (Nasdaq: BREA) (“Brera Holdings” or the “Company”) today announced that two of its football clubs, Brera Strumica in Europe (North Macedonia) and Brera Tchumene in Africa (Mozambique), have both reached the top of the standings in their leagues.
Brera Strumica continues to be undefeated in Prva Liga, the top level of the Macedonian football league, also called the Macedonian First Football League, after a 2-1 victory in the first away game of the season at defending champion Struga, who is currently engaged in the last round of qualifying for the group stage of the 2023-24 UEFA Europa Conference League.
Brera Tchumene won 1-0 against EFCA de Boane, and has taken the lead in the Provinçal Seconda Divisao (Second Division) League in Mozambique and continues its march towards the goal of promotion to Moçambola, the First Division League of the Southeast African country.
