FC Porto vs Manchester City UEFA Champions League Tournament Record

FC Porto have a rich history in this competition, one that started way back in 1956/57 when they first competed in the old European Cup. They had struggled to make a genuine impact on the competition until bursting into life in 1986/87.

Under the guidance of manager Artur Jorge the Estadio do Dragao side reached the European Cup Final, where they met overwhelming favourites Bayern Munich.

They fell behind mid-way through the first half and looked set to falter until Algerian forward Rabah Madjer netted an equalizer after 77 minutes. Brazilian winger Juary then fired in the winner three minutes later to complete a remarkable victory in Vienna.

Their second success came in 2003/04 when Jose Mourinho led the club to victory over AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League Final, winning 3-0 in one of the most one-sided finals ever recorded.

Manchester City’s first involvement in the competition came in 1968/69 when they were beaten in the First Round by Fenerbahce. It would take more than forty years for the team to return to the event, doing so in 2011/12 under Roberto Mancini.

They continued to show progress in the tournament, and under Pep Guardiola, they made real strides towards winning the title. Between 2018 and 2020 they reached the Quarter-Finals three years in a row before getting to their first final in 2021.

There they lost out to Premier League rivals Chelsea, with the Blues winning thanks to a solitary goal from German international Kai Havertz.

Two years later, they returned to the final and, this time, ran out winners by defeating Inter Milan in a cagey game in Istanbul.
