http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitor-c36281 Pereira’s men have stuttered in their UEFA Champions League campaign so far. The Portistas were expected to make a good run in the tournament given the feats they achieved last season; however reality has been quite different.
Despite boasting the likes of Kleber, Fredy Guarin and Joao Moutinho in their ranks, the Dragons have failed to make the kind of impression they were intending to make and have slipped to third in their group.

Having secured only four points from their entire European term so far, the club are in dire of victory and face a seemingly impossible task against the likes of Shakhtar Donetsk in the upcoming weeks.
However despite the arduous task facing the team, vice-captain Hulk insists that his side are coping well and will be in contention for making it to the next stage, if they can somehow grind out results in their remaining games.
Speaking to reporters, the Brazilian International said that while his team have not been performing to their standard recently, they are still in contention to qualify and the players will do everything in their power to secure wins against Shakhtar and
Zenit.
"Porto is well in the Champions League despite the negative results. We have to win the next two games, against Shakhtar Donetsk, away from home, and then the Zenit at home. We hope that FC Porto will make it to the next phase and we will do everything possible
to make it happen,” Hulk was quoted as saying.
Although http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 are on the brink of being eliminated from Europe’s elite competition, the club will be back in the race for qualification if they manage to secure maximum points from their last two fixtures.
