Tuesday, 21 November 2006
Group E
Real Madrid 2-2 Lyon
Both were already through, now Lyon are Group E winners. Van Nistelrooy scores late, but then misses a penalty that would have surely sealed the win.
Steaua Bucuresti 1-1 Dynamo Kiev
Bucuresti finish 3rd and are on to the UEFA Cup.
Group F
Celtic 1-0 Manchester United
In the 81st, Shunsuke Nakamura curls a spectacular 30-yard free kick into the top corner as Celtic make their first-ever trip to the last 16 of the Champions League. Louis Saha has an equally spectacular miss when he has only keeper Boruc to beat and pulls up, thinking that play was ruled offside. Saha goes on to miss a last-minute penalty as United will now need to avoid defeat to Benfica on the Group Stages' last day.
Benfica 3-1 FC Copenhagen
Benfica will need to beat Manchester United on the last day to go through.
Group G
Arsenal 3-1 Hamburg
The Gunners now top the Group with 10, even with Porto who they play on the final day. A draw will get them through. Moscow are just 2 points back.
CSKA Moscow 0-2 FC Porto
Porto are even with Arsenal on top and only need a draw to get through. Moscow are still alive, but will need a win and a winner from Arsenal v Porto.
Group H
AEK Athens 1-0 AC Milan
Milan are already through. Athens control their own destiny in second, one up on Lille. A win against Anderlecht on the last day would see them through without help.
Lille 2-2 Anderlecht
Lille sit third on 6 points. The French-side will need help from Anderlecht to overcome second-place Athens.

Valencia are through as Group winners as Olympiacos can still make the UEFA Cup.
