A late goal by Vincent Aboubakar gave FC Porto a 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in their last UEFA Champions League Group H match at the Dragao Stadium.

Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Taras Stepanenko scored in the 51st minute with a header Wednesday night, but just a few minutes before the end, the Cameroon striker's powerful effort deflected into the net, reports Xinhua.

The game was quite slow and with few scoring chances, which could be due to both teams already being assured of a last 16 berth.

Porto's midfielder Ruben Neves was severely injured in the 40th minute after clashing with Alex Teixeira by accident, and had to leave the field.
