On April 13, 2021, FC Porto defeated Chelsea 1-0 at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium in Seville, in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

In that match, Porto bowed out of the competition with a prestigious victory over the English side, despite being unable to overturn the disadvantage from the first leg. The only goal of the game came in stoppage time, at 90+4 minutes, through Mehdi Taremi, with an acrobatic finish that sealed the outcome.

The match was once again played in Seville, in the exceptional context of that season’s competition, and ended with FC Porto coming out on top in the second-leg result. Even so, Chelsea progressed from the tie, benefiting from the aggregate advantage over the two matches.

It still stands today as one of the dragons’ most symbolic European victories in that campaign, both for the performance against a top-level opponent and for the quality of the move that decided the match. The 0-1 against Chelsea thus remains a significant date in FC Porto’s recent Champions League history.
