Half-Time Report: Goalless between Porto, Shakhtar Donetsk

Neither side can find a breakthrough in the first 45 minutes of the Champions League clash between Porto and Shakhtar Donetsk at the Estadio do Dragao.

It is goalless at the break in the Champions League match between Porto and Shakhtar Donetsk this evening.

The visitors had an excellent chance to take the lead early in the game when Vyacheslav Shevchuk raided down the left and clipped a ball to the back post where Olexandr Gladkiy was unmarked, but he could not poke the ball past Andres.

Both sides struggled to carve out many clear-cut opportunities in the first half as their deliveries in the final third of the pitch were often poor. Ricardo Quaresma wasted good opportunities to find a teammate in the box when under little pressure out wide.

Quaresma managed to produce quality in the final third when he beat his man down the right and fired a shot at goal, which troubled Andriy Pyatov as he failed to hold the ball and his side were forced to concede a corner. Fortunately for the keeper Shakhtar were then able to clear their lines.
