Porto's press is good. Could be a game for Zinchenko.

Now that buggers up Porto time wasting tactics .

Hmmm thinking on .... maybe given our free scoring of late Porto wont want to come out of their shell .

Frustrate us and take it to penalties could be the plan .

Just when I was about to post that Trossard is getting contained on the left he scores. Ødegaard made that happen. The guy is so creative. There is no question in his mind he's at the right club and if RM came crawling back I have no doubt he'd give them the finger.

Rice has to keep his head. Turn that angry into a performance. Hoping it ignites him into making them pay for it. Porto are doing any antic they can think of. What often makes me scratch my head is how some referees don't seem to catch on to their cynical tactics. Or maybe they do and can't do much? Not sure.

I do fear that if Porto presses they will have very good shots on goal. Their striker had a very good shot on goal. Could have been down 1 nil very easily.

What a moment of quality to level up the tie. We deserve it on the balance of play. Porto are obviously streetwise but if we can play the game at our pace and tempo we beat them easily. Teams that play like Porto will struggle to raise the tempo when they are conditioned to play so slow. I don’t think they will change even at 1-1, they may feel their best chance is to keep it tight for as long as possible and make the game about 1 moment, 1 mistake and hope it falls their way.

By the way, 1 minute added time is a complete joke, especially when the ref was pointing clearly at his watch to say he was adding time on. It’s no wonder so many teams see this anti football as a way to play because it’s rarely punished sufficiently at all

This game can still go anywhere absolutely anywhere.

Mikel needs to have a word with saliba who’s on a yellow. Going to be targeted.

we need to be so disciplined here

Also another left back allowed to scythe through the back of Saka without a yellow. All subject of course but just occasionally a defender should get unfairly punished for these to balance out the number they get away with. A single yellow card for a left back against Saka changes the game in a big way

In some ways I have sympathy with refs on timewasting and fake injuries, no ref wants to be the one who played on and didn’t get medical attention for something really serious. If players say they are hurt, particularly head injuries then refs have to believe them for the one time it’s genuine. But what needs to happen is longer periods forced to wait off the pitch and proper time added on - stop a watch for every second the game is delayed by a player going down, it will all add up to way more than they give. We had 1 minute which is barely enough for the time for the goal and celebrations, so the ref basically decided not a single bit of time was wasted in that half by Porto!

We need a period of possession here. Far too sloppy on the ball

You’re probably right but I think we’re playing their game and we should be playing more of our game. There is a tension in our play, we don’t have that same freedom and accuracy.

I don’t think Pépé shanks the clearance without the slight tug from Havertz
