Napoli centre back Henrique is confident in his side’s ability to reach the quarter finals of the Champions League this evening, as they prepare for a second round, second leg match against FC Porto.

With the Portuguese side taking a 1-0 lead over to Naples, a strong defensive display will be required by Henrique and his teammates- as well as a less impressive goalkeeping display from visiting goalkeeper Helton than in the first leg.

“Porto are a team of champions and this will be a very difficult game,” Henrique told abola.pt, “we knew it would be a difficult away game but we played well and had opportunities but Helton was outstanding.”

“FC Porto have fast players and we must be attentive to the counter attack.”

Henrique joined Napoli in January from Palmeiras, having previously played in Europe with Barcelona and Bayer Leverkusen.
