‘Hoodoo’ lives on and FC Porto still can’t win in England

This was not the time FC Porto managed to shake off their poor record against English teams. In their 25th match played on English soil in UEFA competitions, the Dragons suffered their 22nd defeat, this time against Nottingham Forest, currently 16th in the Premier League. The narrow loss sealed their elimination from the Europa League, preventing the Porto side from reaching the semi-finals of the competition. It should be noted that the only time FC Porto beat an English team away from home was against Chelsea, in the 2020/21 season. A match played in Seville due to Covid-19.
