Antonio Nusa came on for Brugge a quarter before the end to determine the result in the 4-0 win away to Porto. The 17-year-old is the youngest Norwegian player and scorer in the Champions League. Nusa has already made his mark for the Belgian club in league contexts, and on Tuesday he let loose in the Champions League as well. In the 75th minute he came on for Ferran Jutglà, who had delivered with a goal and a goal-scoring pass. Until Tuesday, Per Ciljan Skjelbred held the record as the youngest Norwegian in the Champions League, but at 17 years, four months and 27 days old, Nusa took over that honor. Just a quarter of an hour later, he also became the youngest Norwegian goalscorer. In the 89th minute, he crowned the evening with a great score. He started perfectly on a precise pass from Casper Nielsen, led the ball towards the goal with David Carmo on his heels and scored with a perfect finish past Diogo Costa. He did that for a club that tops the table with a full pot after the first two rounds. Big night Jutglà gave the team an early lead. He himself was felled by João Mario. After VAR had approved the referee’s decision, he tapped the ball past goalkeeper Diogo Costa. Brugge had a fresh start to the match, but were pressured after the lead. Simon Mignolet had to save alone with Zaidu, and there were several times danger in Bruges’ goal. Early in the second half, Brugge punctuated the match. First, Jutglá fought surrounded by home defenders and released Kamal Sowah, who doubled the lead. Five minutes later, Danish Andreas Skov Olsen made it 3-0 when he was able to stand all alone on a cross from Björn Meijer. Just before the end, Nusa determined the result and crowned his biggest day on the football pitch.
