What happened
For an hour this was the tight game the half-time score promised: Porto's early set-piece lead, Napoli's scrambled equaliser, and a depleted visiting side still level with 20 minutes left. Then the set pieces told again — Veiga's finish, Kiwior's unmarked header from another corner, and Marín's desperate last-man foul on Samu, which brought the red card and the penalty that completed Napoli's collapse.
