FC Porto continued their free-scoring ways in the Liga ZON Sagres with a comfortable 3-0 victory overy Paços de Ferreira at the Estádio do Dragão
Despite a poor Champions League campaign thus far, Porto have been racking up an impressive series of results in the domestic league.
The sequence continued with a straight-forward win over Paços. The visitors initially acquitted themselves well, and were unlucky to go into the break 1-0 down when Melgarejo scored an unfortunate own goal just before the half-time whistle.
Porto were struggling to find their rhythm, and improved markedly after coach Vitor Pereira brought on substitutes Kleber, James Rodríguez and João Moutinho.
Kleber doubled Porto's lead on 64 minues when he followed up on a James shot that hit the post.
Moutinho completed the scoring in the 84th minute with a rasping left footed finish.
Porto go three points clear at the top of the table, at least for 24 hours, and now wait to see if Benfica can draw level on points with them. Benfica host Olhanense on Saturday night.
