It was a difficult first game in this year’s competition for Oliver Reiss’ side as we came out on the losing side in Portugal.
The hosts took the lead from the penalty spot after 17 minutes when Kaden Braithwaite was adjudged to have brought down his man in the box.
Midfielder Tiago Silva stepped up to send Max Chabot the wrong way.
We had chances of our own after that, with Christian Dunbar-McDonald and Tyrone Samba both going close.
However, Porto doubled their lead just before the break when winger Mateus Mide broke through to round Chabot and roll home.
Teddie Lamb gave us hope with a brilliant finish with 20 minutes to go, but the result was sealed when Tcherno Jamanca got Porto’s third.
