Galeno shines as Porto seal Champions League knockout spot

Porto's Galeno scored twice and set up two others in a 5-3 home win over Shakhtar Donetsk on Wednesday to secure a spot in the Champions League knockout stages.

Porto finished second in Group H with 12 points, level with group winners Barcelona, while Shakhtar ended in third and will drop into the Europa League knockout round playoffs.

Porto broke the deadlock after nine minutes when an unmarked Galeno tapped in from close range from a cross, before Shakhtar's Danylo Sikan levelled in the 29th.

Galeno scored his second two minutes before the break with a strike from the edge of the box to restore Porto's lead and he continued to haunt Shakhtar in the 62nd minute when he set up Mehdi Taremi inside the box to score Porto's third.

An own goal from Porto midfielder Stephen Eustaquio in the 72nd minute reduced the deficit but Pepe scored Porto's fourth, which was also assisted by Galeno, three minutes later and Francisco Conceicao added a fifth in the 82nd.

Eguinaldo scored a consolation goal for Shakhtar two minutes before fulltime.
