Julen Lopetegui: 'Porto made things look easy against Maccabi Tel Aviv'

Porto coach Julen Lopetegui has suggested that his team made their 3-1 win against Maccabi Tel Aviv look easy.

The Portuguese giants are on the verge of qualification for the knockout phase of the Champions League, after goals from Christian Tello, Andre Andre and Miguel Layun saw them seal victory in Israel.

However, despite his team's performance, Lopetegui insisted that his side have work to do before they reach the last 16.

He is quoted by UEFA.com as saying: "We need one point and it won't be easy because we still face great teams and every match is hard. It was a difficult game against a very hard team.

"I'm happy with my boys who made things look easy. We are happy that we have a player like Iker Casillas in the team, he is doing a wonderful job – all the Spanish players and me are enjoying to be part of a club like Porto.

"It is not important who you play with it's more important how you play - we got along without the missing players."

Porto are now three points clear of Chelsea, who beat Dynamo Kiev 2-1 at Stamford Bridge.
