Barca come from behind to reach last 16


Barca come from behind to reach last 16

Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix scored in each half to earn FC Barcelona a 2-1 comeback win at home against Porto on Tuesday (Nov 28) that booked their spot in the Champions League knockout rounds for the first time in three seasons.

FC Barcelona came back from a goal behind to beat Porto and seal a spot in the Champions League last 16. Brazilian winger Pepe hammered home a rebound to give the Portuguese visitors the lead after half an hour.

However, Porto's advantage lasted just two minutes as Joao Cancelo equalised with a stunning curling strike after cutting inside from the left.

Porto goalkeeper Inaki Pena made several fine saves before Joao Felix tucked home a 56th-minute winner.

Barca are guaranteed to qualify from Group H with Porto and Shakhtar Donetsk – who are both three points behind – playing each other in their final game.

Although they have not yet won the group, they will only need to avoid defeat against point-less Royal Antwerp to finish top.
