Quarter-finals
Tuesday
Porto 3-0 Midtyjlland
- Mor Ndiaye’s 15th-minute header put Porto in control and substitutes Afonso Sousa and Gonçalo Borges added late goals to send them through to their second straight Nyon semi-final, ending the hopes of the first Danish side to make the last eight.
- Alejandro Marqués struck a penalty deep in added time to send the holders into the finals for the fourth time in six seasons. Théo Ndicka Matam curled the ball in from the edge of the box on 11 minutes but Barcelona captain Monchu poked in an equaliser just before the hour and shortly afterwards he set up Anssumane Fati to make it 2-1. With three minutes left Lyon brought on Reo Griffiths and he swiftly levelled but Barcelona had a killer response to avoid a shoot-out.
