Thiago Silva found the net for the first time since his PSG debut to break the deadlock with a powerful header on 29 minutes.

Porto, who qualify for the knockout stages as runners-up, equalised four minutes later when Jackson Martinez nodded home from very close range following Danilo's cross.

The hosts were back in front on the hour mark, as Ezequiel Lavezzi found the bottom-right corner with a fierce low drive from a narrow angle.

Silvestre Varela came close to earning a point for Porto 11 minutes from time, but his right-footed effort from 16 yards flew just wide of the post.
