Miguel Layun is at it again. The Mexico international notched a goal and an assist as Porto overcome a 2-0 deficit against Moreirense to win 3-2 on Sunday. His compatriot Hector Herrera also helped out, pulling off what has to go down as one of the most acrobatic assists we've ever seen
Having gone 2-0 down, Porto won a penalty late in the first half which Layun slotted home comfortably. In the second half, Layun whipped in a beautiful delivery from a corner, allowing Hyun-Jun Suk to head home at the near post. The comeback was soon complete as Hector Herrera performed an outrageous martial arts move as the ball was about to go out behind the goal line. His efforts were not in vain, as substitute Evandro latched on to give Porto all three points.
Layun has now racked up 14 assists in the Primeira Liga, and 18 in all competitions. His penalty raised him to five goals for the season. Hector Herrera has six goals and three assists for the season. Check out the highlights from the game here.

With Chicharito on fire in the Bundesliga and Carlos Vela possibly coming into a bit of form, Mexico fans will be hoping that Miguel Layun and Hector Herrera--along with Jesus Corona--can bring their Porto form to the Copa America this summer. If they do, then Mexico will be an extremely difficult team to stop.
These three could be very important for El Tri this summer. Photo: @PlantillaDepor1 | Twitter
