After seeing Porto almost score for the third time and getting an absolute ear thrashing from their manager, the Benfica team began shaping up better and squared up against Porto equally, shutting down the attacks that were so easy for Porto to make just a few minutes prior.
With them playing much better than before, they soon found their own opportunities and one of them almost got them the lead.
A powerful shot from Carlos Vinicius after the ball fell to him just after a corner kick took all of Augustin Marchesin's flexibility to deflect the ball away from its intended target.
After being fisted by Augustin Marchesin's gloves, the ball smashed against the bar and flew out of play.
