    Porto cheating *****!!!!!

    The dive by Falcao for the penalty was the turning point. Villareal were 1-0 up and now it's 3-1 Porto!! Had a bet on Villareal, would have got £170. Falcao has * robbed me. *.

    4-1. *.

    Falcao looks a good striker to me, similar to a Crespo or Forlan would like to see him at a Valencia or Juventus or someone.

    Porto are amazing this season. Falcao and Hulk, best forwardline in Europe this year.

    noting that one game finished 5-1 and that tie is now over, looking at the other one, Benfica V Braga, Braga will firmly fancy their chances after a 2-1 defeat at Benfica.

    they're the success story in my view, no pushovers. The best thing is that they've no super big names

    Aye, but Porto are undefeated all season in the league, in fact, isn't it like 26 wins, 2 draws, 0 defeats? Porto will fancy their chances against either team, having not lost to them all season.

    What a * outfit that Porto are.

    I think theyve won something like 42 of their 46 games this season :97::97::97:

    Their record this season is played 50 won 45 drew 3(Besiktas, Vitoria Guimarae, Sporting Lisbon) lost 2(Sevilla and Benfica)

    They won 25 and drew 2 in the League, won the Supercup, won 6 and lost 1 in the Portuguese Cup and won 13, lost 1 and drew 1 in Europe.

    aye definitely and they'd be overwhelming favourites. But Braga aren't Porto, in terms of club size or resource. This is all down to their team unit. They've done well.

    There a great side as i posted before on the other thread but at the same time villarreal could have scored 3 or 4 tonight but needed a better choice of final ball and finishing from Nilmar etc Rossi is * outstanding his movement is world class wand of a left boot .

    Porto defence a little weak and they hold far too high a line a better side could take them apart .
