Champions league day 3: Once
again three of the four Spanish teams got good results and head up their
groups, with Barcelona the only black sheep. The Catalan side went down 0-2 at
home to AC Milan, their second defeat in a row, and they will have trouble to
get through to the next stage. Deportivo are doing well in their first ever
Champions League, holding Juventus to a goal-less draw in the Delle Alpi
stadium. Zinedine Zidane was sent off in the second half. Valencia recorded
their third win out of three with a late goal by substitute Zahovic against
Lyon, and that after Coupet saved a Mendieta penalty, whilst Real Madrid came
back from behind twice to defeat Bayer Leverkusen 2-3. Roberto Carlos scored
two and Guti got the other, with the injured Raúl only coming on in the
second half. (27.9.00) |
