Portuguese powerhouse Porto recorded a hard-fought 2-1 home win in the first leg of their Champions League encounter with Arsenal and will do their utmost to protect their lead in London. Head coach Jesualdo Ferreira is confident his men can upset the Gunners.
"We need to have confidence in what we do as the game will probably be decided by small details. The balance of the game and how the result pans out will be decisive so we don't need to talk about different scenarios which might happen," Ferreira was quoted as saying on the official UEFA website.
"At Porto we know what our qualities are and we are confident. We know it will be a difficult match but we have the weapons to make it difficult for Arsenal. We know the first leg goal they scored puts them in a very good position. For that reason we need to fight, be positive, get a good result and qualify.
"Last year we reached the quarter-finals and our objective is to do that again. I want to put right the fact that Porto have not won in England before – there's always a first time for everything."
