Viktoria Plzeň defeated FC Porto 1-0 in a Europa League Group H match played on November 9, 2023, at the Doosan Arena in Plzeň, Czech Republic.
The home side opened the scoring early in the 6th minute. Costa played a pass to Valenta, who then found LUKÁŠ ČERV. Červ scored with a well-placed shot under the crossbar, beating Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa. The goal came as an inevitable result of strong pressing by Viktoria Plzeň, disrupting Porto’s passing game.
Prior to Červ’s goal, Borja Sainz had a long-distance attempt for Porto saved by Viktoria Plzeň goalkeeper Jindřich Staněk (Wiegele in the provided text is incorrect). Tomáš Ladra had a chance for Plzeň but couldn’t control the ball cleanly.
