Champions League image of the week: Porto crush Bayern

The surprise of the round

JOE

Well, we don’t think too many saw that one coming.

Porto went two goals up early in the first half thanks to goals from winger Ricardo Quaresma.

However, it was looking as though Bayern were on the road back into the game when Thiago Alcantara scored after 28 minutes.

If JOE was a betting man, our money would have been on the German superpower to go on and win the tie.

But Porto had other ideas. Their final goal was scored by the ever brilliant Jackson Martinez and it’s the subject of our Champions League Picture of the Week.

Fantastic stuff.

The Colombian international has two of the world’s best players scrambling to stop his strike, but Manuel Neuer and Jérôme Boateng are helpless.

Definitely one to frame for the mantlepiece.
