CHAMPIONS LEAGUE RESULT | OPORTO 1 - MALAGA FC 0

Champions League tonight with Spanish Football Club MALAGA FC visiting OPORTO in the away 1º leg match in the last 16 phase of the European competition. Given that Malaga had a very bad night things could have been worst & the final 1 - 0 result to the Portuguese leaves it all wide open for the return leg.   

Deserved victory for Oporto which pressured all night Malaga to stop them playing comfortably the ball. The midfield was owned by the locals & this frustrated all game the Spaniards who could not get it flowing at all. Regular stars like Isco was a shadow tonight.

The winner came in the 56th min when MOUTINHO - my man of the match - sneaked through the Malaga defence while they watched an excellent passed ball from the left wing brush them all. The video would later show that it looked very much like off-side but the goal stood & it was to be become the winner.

Malaga will leave unhappy, their game was very poor, but as mentioned above this tie isn't decided & that means there is still a chance & hope.
