Grand performance by Mehdi Taremi in UCL.

Team Melli’s central striker Mehdi Taremi accomplished a grand Man-Of-the-Match performance for his team, FC Porto, against the group leaders Club Brugge by leading them to a 4-0 win away.

In the 33rd minute, Taremi opened the scoring with an immaculate snooker-type shot into the former Liverpool keeper Mignolet. The 30-year-old forward also closed the match with his second and Porto’s fourth in the 70th minute.

Meanwhile, Taremi also provided a slick pass to assist Eustaquio for the third goal in minute 60.

Taremi could have easily scored a hat trick, but his effort earlier in the first half was shot high off the mark while he was on-to-one against Mignolet.

Sergio Conceicao’s FC Porto is second in the table and would qualify early if Atletico Madrid fails to beat Bayer Leverkusen, missing Azmoun, in the later match.

With a rating of 9.1 and a man-of-the-match performance, Taremi has primed at the right time for the World Cup in less than a month.

Mehdi Taremi targeted by Portuguese media, claims Porto coach Conceição.

FC Porto defeated Boavista, who had Ali Beiranvand in the goal, 4-1 on Saturday night, but the Porto coach was livid with the referee’s performance in this match particularly his failure to call several fouls committed by Boavista defenders on Mehdi Tarmi in the penalty box.

Taremi provided two assists in this game and was knocked down three times in the penalty area of ​​Bovavishta, but the referee was not convinced and waved to play on.  Porto’s daily newsletter echoed Porto’s coach Sérgio Conceição, stressing that Taremi is being targeted by the media in Portugal which consequently affects refereeing decisions. The club’s newsletter said: “It is impossible to comment on this game without referring to the negative performance of the refereeing team. Sérgio Conceição, called the foul on Evanilson “blatantly obvious” and some of the fouls on Mehdi Tarmi’s were not properly called

“This is not normal,” the coach said. “The situation reached a point where Taremi had to be substituted to prevent what had already happened to him and he was dismissed by a red card. ” “Taremi, one of the top 32 players in the world by the Portuguese Federation of Statistics, is the target of harassment by the media, which seems to be stopping referees from calling the fouls committed on him in the box,” the statement said.

Some media outlets in Portugal have been critical of Mehdi Taremi accusing him of diving and cheating referees to get penalty calls. Taremi is getting a reputation for easily dropping to the floor in the box and has been getting quite a few penalties for Porto.
