Fergie calls for a rally

AFP, Manchester
Sir Alex Ferguson has challenged Manchester United to keep their Champions League title defence alive by becoming the first English team to win in Porto.
Ferguson's holders face an uphill struggle to reach the semifinals after being held to a 2-2 draw by the Portuguese champions in Tuesday's last eight first leg clash at Old Trafford.
Pono's two away goals mean United need to win or earn an unlikely high-scoring draw at the Dragao Stadium next Wednesday to stay in the competition.
Ferguson admits it is a daunting prospect, especially given the woeful record of Premier League teams in Porto.
Arsenal lost 2-0 at the Dragao this season, while United have failed to return from Porto with a win twice under Ferguson and Liverpool and Chelsea have also been frustrated there.
"It's a difficult job now because no British team has won in Porto," Ferguson said. "We have to win the game. We've been good at firsts at this club so this is an occasion when we can be first again. We haveajobtodo."
United looked to have earned a barely deserved victory when Carlos Tevez stabbed United into the lead with five minutes to play at Old Trafford.
But Porto substitute Mariano equalised four minutes later to give the visitors just reward for an impressive display and leave United almost certainly needing to become the first English side to win at Porto's stadium next week.
Jesualdo Ferreira's side had gone ahead early in the first half through Cristian Rodriguez and could have been further in front before a calamitous mistake from Bruno Alves set up Wayne Rooney's equaliser.
Not for the first time in recent weeks, United looked
nervous in defence and short of urgency in attack. Now they face a testing trip to the Dragao Stadium next Wednesday knowing only a victory or an extremely high-scoring draw will keep alive their hopes of retaining the Champions League trophy.
"The result was about right. First half they were the better side but second half we improved and got more possession," Ferguson said.
"But getting the (second) goal the way they did - we should really have defended that. It was a bad goal to lose.
"It’s been a hard two days for them but they were lacking in concentration.
"You get a 2-1 lead with four or five minutes left, you really should see it out. It's a difficult game now in Porto, no question of that."
Ferreira added: "In the first half we were the team that attacked more and had more corners. In the second half we were able to keep out United's attacks.
"We had a good reaction to United's second goal. It is a joy to see my team play like this."
