Soccer-Porto hold Basel amid controversy over disallowed goal

(Adds details) By Brian Homewood BERNE, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Porto hit back with a late Danilo penalty to hold FC Basel 1-1 in their Champions League last 16 first leg tie on Wednesday which featured a goal controversially disallowed after a long delay and consultation. Derlis Gonzalez gave the Swiss champions an 11th minute lead but Danilo replied in the 79th minute, calmly scoring following a handball by veteran Argentine defender Walter Samuel. The visitors had finished celebrating and were back on the halfway line when referee Mark Clattenburg, after a long consultation with his linesman, disallowed Casemiro's goal for offside. Fabian Frei chipped a perfectly weighted ball over the Porto defence and found Gonzalez who held off his marker and prodded the ball past Porto goalkeeper Fabiano.
