We should have won by more last night. Salah again wasting chances(also lucky not to get a red for that 'stamp' on Danilo), although Real Madrid new purchase Militao was good at dealing with him.
Guess we were probably thinking about Chelsea in the second half. However, we got the job done and that's the main thing. Very happy for Keita, thought Henderson played a great Captain's role and Firmino is on fire and so unselfish, respect
No away goal conceded crucial, disrespectful to think we were gonna steamroll Porto. They are a threat and have a goal in them, especially if Marega is more clinical, but so do we, so 1 away goal should do it.
Robertson rested and returning for second leg.
Gini rested.
Matip rested.
No injuries and conserved some energy second half. All good.
Great result in the other game too, City have to go full pelt in the coming games and hopefully it will catch up with them. Bad luck about Kane and Deli Alli's injuries though, especially Kane who may be out for the rest of the season.
Roll on Chelsea next on Sunday.

P. S. Felt sorry for Shaqiri - got warmed up, took his tracksuit off and ready to come on only for the ref to blow the full time whistle.
