UEFA Cup, quarter finals, first leg

All three Spanish sides won their opening games in the quarter finals tonight. Osasuna are already virtually through to the semi-finals after beating Bayer Leverkusen 0-3. Cuéllar headed them into a first minute lead, and two goals in as many minutes from David López and Webó midway through the second half wrapped things up.

Sevilla came from a goal down to beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1, leaving the tie evenly balanced for next week's second leg. Robbie Keane put the English side ahead in only the second minute, but a hotly disputed Kanouté penalty and a header from Kerzhakov turned the scoreline around before the break.

Espanyol also have some work to do after a 3-2 win over Benfica. Tamudo opened the scoring early on and Nelson headed a shot from Riera into his own net soon afterwards, and when Pandiani made it three with just under an hour gone it appeared to be all over. But Nuno Gomes and Simao got two back later in the second half to give the Portuguese side an even chance of going through. (05.04.07)
