Juventus 3-2 Porto (4-4 agg): Sergio Oliveira’s extra-time goal sees Porto advance on away goals

Sergio Oliveira’s 115th-minute goal shocked Juventus to send Porto through on away goals in a stunning Champions League last-16 tie.

Adrien Rabiot’s thumping header two minutes later gave the Italian champions hope, only for Porto goalkeeper Agustin Marchesin to produce a stunning save in the final moments to ensure the Portuguese champions advanced on away goals despite a 3-2 second leg Juventus win.

Porto had opened up a 3-1 aggregate lead through Oliveira’s 19th-minute penalty after Merih Demiral brought down Porto’s Mehdi Taremi.

But Juventus’ Federico Chiesa found the far corner from a tight angle in the 49th minute before Taremi was shown a second yellow card for kicking the ball away.

And Chiesa headed in a Juan Cuadrado cross after 63 minutes to level the tie on aggregate.

It looked like Juventus would capitalise on their man advantage but Porto defended superbly to take the match extra time where Oliveira’s decided the tie.

Juventus have now been knocked out on away goals at this stage for the second consecutive season.

• Reaction to Porto’s stunning win

Shades of 2004 in epic Porto win

Costinha’s last minute free-kick against Manchester United in 2004 ensured an unfancied Porto side advanced to the quarter-finals against Manchester United on an historic night for the Portuguese club, who went on to win the Champions League that season.

And 17 years later it was Oliveira who added his name into the history books with Juventus keeper Wojciech Szczesny unable to keep out his low strike.

Porto looked to have thrown away their chances of progressing when Iranian forward Taremi was shown two quick yellow cards for a late challenge and unsportsmanlike conduct early in the second half.

But once Juventus had levelled the tie on aggregate in the 63rd minute, a combination of stoic defending and fortune kept Andrea Pirlo’s side at bay.

Morata saw an injury-time goal ruled out while Cuadrado curled a thumping effort against the crossbar with seconds of normal time remaining.

In the extra 30 minutes, Juventus continued to create chances, but it was Sergio Conceicao’s side who scored against the run of play to advance to the final eight for the second time in three seasons.

Pressure on Pirlo

Eyebrows were raised when former Juve midfielder Pirlo was named manager of the Italian giants last summer despite the World Cup winner having no previous managerial experience.

His side’s results this season have been, to put it lightly, inconsistent.

Juventus are in the final of the Coppa Italia, but in the league the side who have won the last nine Serie A titles look a shadow of their former selves.

With the gap to leaders Inter Milan at a worrying 10 points, Pirlo’s position at the top has repeatedly been brought into question.

An expected home win over Porto would have temporarily silenced critics. Instead, the voices against the former Juventus and Milan midfielder are expected to get louder.
