Completely unnecessarily and carelessly, U\u010dena brought down Porto\u2019s striker, and a penalty was awarded to the hosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He fouled Gil and received a yellow card. William Gomes made no mistake. Mateus went one way, the ball the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After conceding the opening goal, Zvezda played more offensively, and the best chance was missed by Ivani\u0107. After a cross from Radonji\u0107, he headed the ball over the goal. Zvezda\u2019s improved play was crowned by a brilliant goal from young Kostov in the 33rd minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Handel took a free kick, the ball bounced into Kostov\u2019s path, and he struck a superb volley, sending it into the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zvezda continued to attack, creating a few dangerous chances in front of Porto\u2019s goal, and the first half ended 1:1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second half saw open play on both sides, with both teams pushing for victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Porto, who entered the match as the heavy favorite, increased the pressure, while the Red and Whites held firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zvezda looked to counter, and Duarte missed a golden opportunity for a complete turnaround in the 88th minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The punishment came just a minute later. Zvezda\u2019s defense collapsed, Seol was late to get back, a lightning counterattack unfolded, and Mora calmly beat Mateus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/they-tried-to-break-his-arm-group-of-young-men-brutally-beat-a-student-in-front-of-the-assembly\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">THEY TRIED TO BREAK HIS ARM: Group of young men brutally beat a student in front of the Assembly!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/because-of-the-monument-to-the-chetnik-duke-montenegrin-police-raided-the-durdevi-stupovi-monastery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">BECAUSE OF THE MONUMENT TO THE CHETNIK DUKE: Montenegrin police raided the \u0110ur\u0111evi Stupovi monastery!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/pristina-increases-pressure-with-new-law-just-another-measure-in-the-policy-of-ethnic-cleansing-of-serbs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">PRI\u0160TINA INCREASES PRESSURE WITH NEW LAW: \u201cJust another measure in the policy of ethnic cleansing of Serbs!\u201d<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/student-from-serbia-also-arrested-the-israeli-army-raided-the-flotilla-sailing-towards-gaza-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">STUDENT FROM SERBIA ALSO ARRESTED: The Israeli army raided the flotilla sailing towards Gaza!
