United-Villarreal 2-1

—

More and more man of the records: on the night in which he is officially the player with the most appearances in the history of the Champions League, Cristiano Ronaldo scores in the 95th minute and saves United. Manchester’s men go under at Old Trafford against Villarreal, on an action at speed closed by Paco Alcacer (52 ‘). In the 60th minute, former Inter Alex Telles equalized with a beautiful volley from outside the box, a little out of the way, directly from a cross from a free-kick by Bruno Fernandes from the opposite corner. First three points for United who now in group F has reached Young Boys behind Atalanta, who have four points.

Benfica-Barcelona 3-0

—

Braithwaite, Dembélé and Aguero are missing, but the real problems are behind (where Alba is absent). As soon as the time to raise their heads in the league (3-0 on the Levante) and Barça plunges back into the crisis, economic and field. Three minutes pass and Benfica rejoices with Nuñez in Lisbon. Pique struggles on the first goal, then another defensive amnesia due to Silva’s 2-0 in the 69th minute. Portuguese trio again with Nuñez, on a penalty after hands from Dest. Garcia sent off for double yellow three minutes from time. Now for the blaugrana, with zero points in group E after two races, the road to qualification for the second round is really uphill. And Koeman’s bench is very hot.

Bayern-Dynamo Kyiv 5-0

—

Bayern Munich, leaders in the Bundesliga and in Group E of the Champions League, extends to nine (6 points). Dynamo Kiev want to redeem the humiliating defeat in the Ukrainian Super Cup against Shakhtar but the usual Lewandowski, however, makes things easier for the Germans. Penalty scored after 12 minutes and doubled thanks to the verticalization of Muller before the half hour. Trio of Gnabry with a ride on the right and a fireball under the crossbar. In the final, Sane and Choupo-Moting scored.

Salzburg 2-1 Lille

—

For Salzburg it is the year of penalties. Three in favor (in 45 minutes) whistled against Sevilla in the first round. Two more tonight against Lille. In total, they score five penalties in 180 minutes. Adeyemi takes care of them: the first one shortly after half an hour and the other in the 53rd minute caused by Yilmaz’s hand ball. The Turkish then shortens to 62 ‘. The Austrians now lead group G with four points.

Wolfsburg 1-1 Sevilla

—

At 48 ‘Steffen unlocks it by turning on the net a ball that finds himself between the feet in the penalty area, after Arnold’s heel and the involuntary bank of a defender. However, it is not enough to beat Sevilla del Papu, Suso and Lamela. It is precisely the Argentine ex Roma to suffer the foul that leads to the penalty of the 1-1 final and to the expulsion of Guilavogui. Strict decision by the referee. Rakitic puts it on the net in the 87th minute. The two teams are paired in second and third place in group G with two points.

Zenit-Malmoe 4-0

—

Nine minutes and Zenit is already ahead: ball in the middle by Santos, from the left, and goal by Claudinho, born in ’97, the first in two total appearances in the Champions League. Usual script in the second half. Kuzyaev immediately scores 2-0, with the aggravating circumstance that the Swedes remain in ten due to the expulsion of Ahmedhodzic (hand ball). Sutormin rounds the result with a left-footed shot from outside in the 80th minute, until Wendel closes it in the fifth of recovery, on retort. Second defeat in as many games for Malmoe, while Zenit – always in control of the match – rose to three points in the classification of group H, the same as Chelsea and Juventus who face each other at 21. On 20 October, the bianconeri will fly in St. Petersburg.
