Vagner Love took the penalty - it was saved but Ignashevich stepped in to fire home on the rebound. FC Porto showed far more attacking play than Sevilla but could not finish, the honours in tonight's game going to former FC Porto forward, the Brazilian Luis Fabiano. However, FC Porto goes through on the away goals rule, having scored two in last week's victory 2-1 away in Spain.
