"This is a match that will go down in the history of the club. The players keep the honor of the supporters with the passion they show", Conceicao said after the match, quoted by Antara from the official UEFA website.
"I have a brave group of players who can translate ambition in the best way, against a great team which is filled with high-quality players", he added.
Porto's situation was pressed against when Mehdi Taremi received a second yellow card early in the second half, but Sergio Oliveira's second goal in stoppage time was enough to score a quarter-final ticket for Naga's men.
