Atletico and Porto incredibly score THREE goals after 90th minute in Champions League for SECOND time in a year | The Sun

LAST night's Champions League clash between Atletico Madrid and Porto ended with THREE added-time goals for the second time in a year.

It was all square at 0-0 as the 90th minute struck at the Metropolitano Stadium.


But the gears quickly shifted when Mario Hermoso broke the deadlock to put Atletico Madrid 1-0 up in the first minute of extra time.

Porto quickly responded as Mateus Uribe netted a penalty to level the score in the 96th minute.

And just as both teams anticipated that the points would be shared, Antoine Griezman fired home a last-gasp winner to secure the win for Diego Simeone's side in spectacular style.

Last night's action-packed thriller marked just the second game in Champions League history to see three goals scored after the 90th minute – excluding extra-time.

Two minutes later, midfielder Rodrigo De Paul netted to give his side a 3-0 lead.
