Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds MetLife Stadium will turn into a battlefield for FC Porto and Al Ahly SC.
- 5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Omar Kamal suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 15' Goal! Wessam Abou Ali scores his 7 goal in 262 matches.
- 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 23' Goal! Rodrigo Mora scores his 1 goal in 480 matches.
- 26' A meaty challenge results in booking for Mohamed Hany on 26.
- 31' Al Ahly SC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 31.
- 35' Another change for Al Ahly SC made on 35 minute. Hamdy Fathy leaves to be changed by Aliou Dieng.
- 40' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Al Ahly SC that had 5 games and scored 5 goals.

- 79' FC Porto is showing some good football. However, FC Porto are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
