Captain Vandinho's goal in the away leg meant Braga went into the game at their Estadio Municipal home needing just one goal to turn the tie around and it duly arrived in the 19th minute.
Domingos Paciencia's Braga , runners-up to Benfica in last season's Portuguese championship, will be appearing in their first ever European final on away goals after a 2-2 aggregate draw and thwarted hopes of a clash between traditional rivals Porto and Benfica in the final in Dublin on May 18.
-----
Villarreal went into the game against Porto trailing 5-1 from the first leg but took a 17th-minute lead when Cani side-footed home following a one-two with Marco Ruben.
Porto equalised five minutes before half-time via a deflected effort from Brazilian forward Hulk, however, and in the 50th minute Radamel Falcao's goal put the tie beyond the Spaniards.
Victory would have made Andre Villas Boas's team the first in history to win eight consecutive away games in European competition, but Joan Capdevila drew the hosts level before Giuseppe Rossi netted from the penalty spot in the 80th minute.
Colombian striker Falcao entered the history books as Porto, who are yet to lose a league game this season, completed an emphatic 7-4 aggregate victory over Villarreal despite a 3-2 loss at El Madrigal.
Falcao's 16th goal in this season's tournament, broke Jurgen Klinsmann's 15-year record for the most European goals in a single season.
