On March 30, 1994, FC Porto produced one of the most memorable European performances in its history by defeating Werder Bremen 5-0 in Germany, in a Champions League match.

In the group stage of the competition, the Dragons showed their superiority and built a commanding victory with goals from Rui Filipe, Emil Kostadinov, Secretário, Domingos Paciência and Ion Timofte. The last goal came from the penalty spot, shortly before the final whistle, after a handball in the box following a shot by Domingos.

The match remains in the memory of Porto supporters because of the scale of the result and the authoritative manner in which the team imposed itself away from home against one of the big names in European football at the time. FC Porto showed attacking efficiency, intensity and control of the game, turning a difficult trip into an exceptional night.

That 5-0 win in Bremen is still remembered as one of the brightest chapters in the club’s international history, during a European campaign that reinforced the Dragons’ competitive status in UEFA’s top club competition.

More than three decades later, the thrashing against Werder Bremen remains a landmark result in FC Porto’s European history and a symbol of a generation that left its mark on continental competitions.
