Winner of Antwerp (2-0), FC Porto is now co-leader of Group H of the Champions League.

After the defeat of FC Barcelona on the ground of Shakhtar Donetsk (1-0) at the start of the evening, FC Porto did not miss the opportunity to come back to the level of the Blaugranas by dominating Royal Antwerp (2-0) during of the 4th day of the Champions League.

The Portuguese scorers are Evanilson (31st sp) and Pepe (90th+1), and Porto now has nine points, like Barça, but the Catalans have a little ascendancy because they won the first leg against the Dragoes. Watch out for Shakhtar Donetsk, with its 6 points, while the Belgians from Antwerp are heading towards the exit with 0 points.
