F-T! Basel 1-1 Porto. That's it, it ends all level and Porto deserve nothing less than that. Basel scored early but never threatened again as the visitors took total control of the game and got their away goal from Danil's penalty 10 minutes from the end.
90+2'
Porto earn a corner but refuse to pack the box, as both sides seem relatively content to go to Portugal with the score as it is.
90'
There will be four minutes of added time.

Despite his booking the Brazilian inernational has probably been the standout player for Porto tonight, with his ambitious fullback play giving Porto the crucial away goal.

GOAL! Basel 1-1 Porto. Danilo wraps his foot around it and it's confidently knocked into the bottom left-hand corner. The home side have conceded control of the game since their early goal and the pressure from Porto has told in the end.
78'
Danilo's low cross hit Walter Samuel's arm as he slid in to block. The Brazilian fullback will take it himself.

PENALTY FOR PORTO!
76'
Tello smashes the ball straight at Elnenly when well placed on the left wing. He's been frustrating.
74'
They work it well to Herrera 20 yards from goal but the Mexican's low curling shot is easy for Vaclik to save.
72'
After intense pressure in the opening 15 minutes of the second-half, Basel are now looking more confortable again. What can Porto do?
70'
Quaresma gets behind Safari and plays it low across the Basel penalty are but nobody in Porto blue is there to meet it.
68'
17-year-old Neves is the man (or is that boy?) who replaces Torres.
67'
Quaresma tries an ambitious half-volley from wide on the right but he lashes it well over the bar.
66'
Torres is stuggling, clutching his shoulder, and he has asked to be replaced.
64'
Martinez finally gets the chance he has been waiting for but the Colombian is unable to take it as he is played in by Oliver Torres but miscontrols the ball and chips it agonisingly over the bar.

Streller, who has barely touched the ball, goes off for the fresh legs of Breel Embolo.
