On the second leg of UEFA Champions League, Liverpool vs. Porto will go again head to head clash for their second match up in the knock stage competition at Anfield football stadium. On the first leg of the game we’ve seen Liverpool easily winning with a 5 – 0 goals. The goals came from three players, namely: Sadio Mane with 3 goals during 25th, 53rd, 85th, Mohamed Salah 29th and Roberto Firmino in the 69th minute of the game. Liverpool is heavily favored to win this second game having a great advantage which they gain from the first leg of the match, so we can safe to say that Liverpool will probably advance to the next round of the competition. One of the biggest take away for this matchup is that can Porto make that historical comeback? I doubt, with the quality squad of the Liverpool plus the hostile crowd at Anfield stadium it will be hard for the Porto team to make that comeback. Although we’ve already seen that in the past with the like of F.C. Barcelona against PSG but it takes a special team to do that kind of game. Is Porto a special team? I doubt again, because if you look at the perspective they were lacking of superstar football players and this is still Europe biggest competition, although they are one the biggest team in Portugal but this team still long way to go, to reach that level of as one of the biggest football clubs in Europe.
