Porto match live online tonight

Bayer 04 face an intriguing test of current form against FC Porto – and all Werkself fans can watch the action. That includes anybody unable to be at tonight’s match at the Belkaw Arena in Bergisch Gladbach kicking off at 18.00 CET. The match against the top Portuguese club, including five-team world goalkeeper of the year Iker Casillas, is available as live stream online at bayer04.de and on Facebook.

That’s a great opportunity for all Bayer 04 fans: The attractive friendly against the four-time European cup winners from Porto, with 31 domestic league titles and 16 cup triumphs to their credit, will be broadcast live at bayer04.de and is also live on Facebook – as was recently the case when the Werkself clocked up a 4-0 win against Koblenz.

Head coach Roger Schmidt and his team will face a tougher challenge this time round. “We know Porto are a top team playing at the highest level. It will be interesting to see who’s further on in the pre-season,” said Kevin Kampl. And his midfield team-mate and Copa America winner Charles Aránguiz, who returned to training this week, added: “Friendlies against top teams like Porto are always helpful.” Bayer 04 fans will be able to see for themselves from 18.00 CET by watching the live stream at bayer04.de and on Facebook.

Bender and Brandt off to Frankfurt on Thursday

For the captain Lars Bender and Julian Brandt it will the last appearance in a Werkself shirt for the next few weeks: Thursday marks the start of the Olympic adventure in Rio for the two players. The Germany squad under coach Horst Hrubesch come together for three days in Frankfurt and fly out from there on Saturday to Brazil.
