Five shots at the other arsenal
Regardless of the caliber of the weapons or the number of ammunitions, FC Porto dismantled, piece by piece, bullet by bullet, two arsenals in the space of four days. First the one of London, then the one of Braga. Each in turn, fell round at the Dragão, bent under the weight of an explosive and lethal football, that the revolt of the effects of a prolonged ambush helped spark, enhancing devastating effects.
Five goals is a lot of football, is a flood of class and wit to write a number and a display to remember the recent outcome before another Sporting, also crushed by the blue inspiration. It's muscle, brightness and fury. In a word, is Porto. Porto and its essence, to which should not escape the merit of two arsenals down in four days with an accumulated seven goals. Call it demolition or if you prefer, just revolt.
