The Score – BRUGES, Iran’s Mehdi Taremi scored twice to put Porto on the brink of reaching the Champions League last 16 as they beat Club Brugge 4-0 in Belgium on Wednesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taremi’s contribution, as well as Evanilson and Stephen Eustaquio’s second-half goals, helped Porto gain revenge for a defeat by the same scoreline when the two sides first met in Group B in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porto will reach the next round if Atletico Madrid fail to overcome Bayer Leverkusen later on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atletico head to Portugal next Tuesday as the Germans host Brugge, already qualified, in the final round of group matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa saved twice from a retaken penalty when the score was only 1-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I think the penalties saved by Diogo were the most important moments of the game,” Taremi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He did very well and we have to thank him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We didn’t think about the other teams, because if we do our job, we will get through the group. It all depends on us.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sergio Conceicao’s Porto were set on their way as attacker Taremi broke the deadlock just after the half-hour mark after Otavio’s assist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taremi’s effort also marked the first time that ex-Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet had been beaten in the competition this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Belgians were handed a potential lifeline four minutes after the break when referee Michael Oliver and VAR decided to award them a penalty, judging Porto’s David Carmo had lashed out at Brandon Mechele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Captain Hans Vanaken had his shot saved by Costa before Oliver spotted encroachment in the area and ordered the penalty to be retaken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dutch winger Noa Lang then stepped up but Costa denied the 23-year-old an equaliser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less than 10 minutes later Porto moved closer to three points as Brazilian Evanilson pounced on an Abakar Sylla mistake in his own box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their third followed with half an hour left after Mignolet parried Eustaquio’s first effort before the midfielder buried the rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taremi’s double was secured with 20 minutes left as he finished smoothly from Otavio’s pass to put the pressure firmly on Atletico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
