    Last home game of the season, and a chance for the home fans to applaud the players and perhaps say goodbye to a few as well. This will be Mariano's last home game, so I'm sure we'll see him play and get a nice ovation from the supporters. But Will Hulk still be here next year...Falcao...Rolando...Belluschi...Helton? Obviously we don't know, but I'd expect a strong, dominant performance from Porto, especially since we beat these guys 3-0 back in December.


    Squad called:

    GK: Helton and Beto;

    DF: Sapunaru, Rolando, Maicon, Otamendi, Sereno and Alvaro;

    MF: Souza, Guarin, Belluschi, Moutinho and Ruben Michael;

    FW: Mariano Gonzalez, Hulk, Falcao, Walter and James Rodriguez.


    --So Belluschi returns after a month on the sidelines.

    --Medical staff is hoping that Fernando will make it back in time for the EL Final. We play tomorrow and next weekend vs Maritimo in the league, so he has a bit of time to recover from the injury vs Villarreal.

    --I guess Varela is hurt too, according to our website. Don't know how serious his injury is.

    --Cristian Rodriguez, Jorge Fucile and Emidio Rafael are all injured as well, though Fucile has at least begun to do some individual training. He's still a long-shot to make it back by Dublin, though.

    Porto could not handle Pizzi's swagger

    Porto tied Paços with little motivation. Looking at that video, I'd say Sporting couldn't handle Pizza's swagger losing 2-3. :p
