    There have been some huge stories in European football over the last few days, so here is a bit of reaction to them.

    Arsenal's set pieces are without question one of the stories of the season - It's like the old days under George Graham.

    Ben White just wants to be a nuisance, Varela can't handle him, pushing and shoving, and causing a distraction for the Porto defenders.

    It's hung up to the far post, they've got William Saliba, Kai Havertz and Gabriel challenging for it. They should have scored from at least one of them.

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    Arsenal have failed to have a shot on target in the first half of a Champions League match for the first time since against Paris St-Germain in September 2016.

    However, the Gunners have also have stopped the opposition from scoring a first-half goal in six of their seven games, only Real Sociedad (seven) have done this more often in this season's Champions League.

  4. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:48 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    Goalless in Portugal too. The hosts had the best chances but Galeno hit the post and fired the rebound wide. Arsenal have looked a threat from Bukayo Saka's corners from the right wing, but Diogo Costa in the home goal hasn't had too many saves to make.

    Napoli 0-0 Barcelona

    Barca started the half well, with 16-year-old Lamine Yamal instrumental but it's all gone a bit quiet since then.

    I genuinely thought Arsenal may storm this match with a whole bunch of goals, but right now, I'm thinking it might be a draw or if not a one 1-0... to either team

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    A deeper corner from Bukayo Saka, whose delivery has been superb today. Kai Havertz is coming in around the back post, and he, Jakub Kiwior and a few defenders all go for it. Havertz may well have got the final touch with a header but wide it goes.

  8. 'Outstanding football from Porto'published at 20:42 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February

    Outstanding football from Porto.

    A wonderful backheel to Evanilson and he gets a good shot away across goal.

    Another little warning shot for Arsenal.

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    This is a bright spell for Porto. Gabriel Martinelli loses the ball and Porto spring forwards. Pepe, the Brazilian, not the Portuguese, backheels the ball inside the penalty area and it falls to Evanilson.

    He strikes low and hard across goal, but David Raya has his angles spot on and dives down to his right and holds on to the ball.

  10. Postpublished at 20:38 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    Nico Gonzalez wins the ball for Porto 30 yards out and tries his luck, but it's always going over and there no sign of any panic from David Raya in the Arsenal goal.

  11. 'Counter attack may be the way to go for Arsenal'published at 20:36 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February

    The first time that Arsenal have gotten Bukayo Saka one on one in the box with a Porto defender and it came from a counter attack.

    That may be the way to go for Arsenal the longer this game goes on.

  12. CLOSE!published at 20:36 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    Saka's corner is an excellent one swung in from the right side. It is carnage in the penalty area with lots of pushing and shoving from both sides and the ball falls to William Saliba at the back post. But it's more a glancing header instead of a powerful effort and he nods wide of goal. Chance.

    Bukayo Saka tries to get to the byeline, and wins a corner, which he will take.

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    Leandro Trossard tries his luck from the corner of the penalty area but it is an absolute waste as he balloons the effort into the fans.

    Commentators and pundits alike talking as if Arsenal have already won this game, against a Porto team with far more Champions League pedigree and set up like Atletico Madrid! Not so sure it will be Arsenal's night myself.

    As a Spurs fan it is tough to cheer on Arsenal even though their success may bring us Champions League next season. COYS

    Bukayo Saka swings in a corner from the right, but Diogo Costa does really well to leap high and catch the ball above his head to calm things down. Top handling from the Porto keeper.

    We should be losing. How have Porto not scored? We need to wake up because despite what Neil Lennon says we haven’t started well at all. Not playing like we normally do.

    Napoli 0-0 Barcelona

    Robert Lewandowski has a chance for Barcelona, but it is saved by the foot of Alex Meret. Barca come again and get another opportunity but this time Ilkay Gundogan, from outside the penalty area, sees his shot tipped around the post by Meret.

    Napoli hanging on at the moment.

    I thought it was in.

    Galeno's reaction was so sharp, absolutely brilliant to get across the defender Gabriel.

    The ball bangs off the woodwork and he gets on the end of the second chance and just puts it wide.

    That's a massive let off for Arsenal! Porto's tactics are working, on the counter with such gusto and speed nearly caught them out.

  20. HITS THE WOODWORK - Portopublished at 20:21 Greenwich Mean Time 21 February

    Porto 0-0 Arsenal

    Two massive let-offs for Arsenal. Galeno catches one on the half volley and it is a great connection eight yards out and it smashes off the left upright. It bounces instantly back to Galeno and a rapid snap-shot sees him fire just wide of the other post. Anything on target with the rebound and Porto would be in front.
