Barcelona continued their Champions League winning run with a 1-0 victory over Porto. Ferran Torres scored for his side after coming off the bench to replace an injured Robert Lewandowski after the half-hour mark. 

Gavi was shown a red card late in the game, after picking up two yellow cards. The midfielder will miss their next Champions League game, but the Culers have enough depth to compensate for their star player.
