What a finish!

Porto’s Kelvin scored this wonderful goal in the 91st minute Saturday to beat Benfica 2-1 and unseat them at the top of the Primeira Liga with just one more match to play. It may very well have decided the title, as Porto (still undefeated in league play) can clinch with a win next weekend.

As the goal was struck, Benfica coach Jorge Jesus fell to his knees, knowing his team may have just blown the championship. Poor Benfica, but hey, at least they can grab some silverware on Wednesday, when they play Chelsea in the Europa League final (2p ET on FOX Soccer)

Champions League newbies Malaga impressively moved on to the quarterfinals with a 2-1 aggregate win over Porto.The goal of the match was scored by none other than Isco, the young phenom many believe is the brightest talent in the world not named Neymar.

Yep, that’s another Goal of the Month nominee! There’s been a lot of those recently (not that we’re complaining)!

You won’t see Jackson Martinez try another Panenka penalty anytime soon.

The Porto forward looked as cool as the other side of the pillow…until he didn’t. His look (and his manager’s) really says it all.

Incredibly, his teammates granted him a second chance at a penalty later in the match. That time, Martinez made no mistake.

Moutinho’s strike hands Porto narrow win over Malaga

<a href="http://msn.foxsports.com/video?videoid=0ce47610-df5e-4333-a5e9-e141ee4c91e5&src=v5:embed:syndication:&from=shareembed-syndication%22Story_MP2_CHAMPIONS%20LEAGUE%22" title="Moutinho strike gives Porto 1-0 lead against Malaga" target="_new">Video: Moutinho strike gives Porto 1-0 lead against Malaga</a>

A second-half goal from Joao Moutinho gave Porto a narrow 1-0 win over Malaga ahead of the return leg in Spain.

Porto controlled the match in the first half, but Malaga’s defense proved tough until Alex Sandro’s pinpoint pass found Moutinho in the box and the Portuguese slotted home. Replays however showed that the goal appeared tto be scored in offside position.

Porto is now in the driver’s seat, while Malaga lost for the first time in their debut Champions League season.

What do you think? Was the goal offsides or too close to call?

Portugal’s version of the “Clasico” takes place between Porto and Benfica. And this weekend, the two teams made sure the tie lived up to its top billing, offering us four goals all of which were scored in the first 17 minutes!

The best of the bunch? Benfica’s Nemanja Matic’s stunning volley to tie it at 1-1 in the 10th minute, just two minutes after Porto went ahead. The game would end in a 2-2 draw.

Hello, goodbye! »

Henning Berg was fired on Thursday by Blackburn Rovers after just 57 days in charge at Ewood Park. The former Rovers and Manchester United defender is probably more than a little disppointed, but it could be worse. At least he outlasted these guys…

Talk about spooky stuff.

During Porto’s Champions League victory against PSG earlier this month, cameras recorded James Rodriguez’s goal celebration. Strangely enough, a ghost (yes, a ghost) was captured right in the middle of the festivities.

Just in time for Halloween, right?
