Champions League Match day 4 Results

Olympiacos 1-4 Lyon
Rosenborg 0-2 Real Madrid


Real Madrid and Lyon have qualified for the next Knockout stage of Champions league with a win in their matches yesterday.Lyon looks pretty strong with the top slot in Champions league as well as in the French league.Madrid have their own injury worries haunting them in the la liga competitions, though they managed a win last week at Real Betis. Ronaldo is expected to play in the Derby clash against Barcelona next week. What a huge match that is going to be.I always love it, one of the Best derby's in the world with both side exhibiting attacking game plan and the players give out their best as if it is a world cup final.Remember last derby when Madrid won at Bernabeu with Zidane crashing against the goal post scoring a goal from a header.

PSV 1-0 Milan
Betis 1-0 Chelsea
Liverpool 3-0 Anderlecht


Surprising results from yesterday's matches were Chelsea's and A.C Milan's defeat.Chelsea were beaten by Betis who are having a poor domestic season and before this win they consecutively lost their last four matches. Milan did win against Juve in their doemstic campaign but lost to PSV at home.What is surprising is that the two big teams failed to score.Could be because of under estimating their rivals.They should also be happy that they conceded only one away goal.The group containing Liverpool,Chelsea and Betis is still wide open, though I see that the chances for the English teams to qualify are really high.Liverpool has to play chelsea at Stamford Bridge and they face Betis at anfield.

Other results from yesterday's matches.
Schalke 2-0 Fenerbahçe
Artmedia 2-2 Rangers
Internazionale 2-1 Porto


Coming back to Real Madrid since the other two teams in the group were totally out of form the passage into last 16 has been easy.But hopefully Luxemburgo will have a full team to pick up from when the matches in the knock out stages start.
