UEFA Cup Group Stage Matchday 3

A Zenit 17:00 Nürnberg
A AZ 20:45 Larissa
B Lokomotiv Moskva 18:30 København
B Atlético 20:45 Aberdeen
C Elfsborg 18:15 Mladá Boleslav
C AEK 20:00 Fiorentina
D Hamburg 19:00 Rennes
D Brann 20:15 Dinamo Zagreb
E Sparta 18:30 Spartak Moskva
E Zürich 20:15 Toulouse
F Braga 21:00 Bayern
F Bolton 21:00 Aris
G Getafe 20:45 H. Tel-Aviv
G Tottenham 20:45 AaB
H Panionios 20:00 Galatasaray
H Helsingborg 20:15 Austria Wien

If AZ will not loose tonight they break Ipswich Town's record of 31 unbeaten home matches in European football. Both clubs NEVER lost a homematch in European football.

Pelle and Jenner are doubtful for AZ (both did not train yesterday), so Dembele & El Hamdaoui will probably start up front.

My fantasy team for tonight:

Jussi
Cortes Gardner (the Bolton one) Donk
Cziommer (c) Granero Van der Vaart Simao
Larsson Arshavin Aguero

bench:
Frey, Mathijssen, Modric, Lucio

Frank, is Aguero likely to start tonight?

At the moment my FF team is

--------------Frey

Donk--Kompany--Ujfalusi--Gardner

Modric---VDV---Jenas---Ribery

-------Klose--Aguero (c)

Should be two wins for the English contingent.

On a side note, now Everton are in form this season, I think they could mount a serious challenge for the UEFA cup. Wouldn't be surprised if they made the last 8, as long as they stay relatively injury free.

sheff

the list
La convocatoria de 18 jugadores está formada por Falcón, Antonio López, Pernía, Motta, Cléber Santana, Forlán, Raúl García, Luis García, Agüero, Maxi Rodríguez, Eller, Abbiati, Zé Castro, Reyes, Maniche, Mista, Pablo Ibáñez y Simao.

BUT he's rested players for uefa matches a lot, but Kun hasn't been rested. he may well not play tonight, and AS are suggesting as much too.

Thanks Frank. I've had disastrous luck with picking my captain so far. Might have to change it to someone who is almost certain to play.

Cool just paid 9,000,000 for the mf-er

35' Zenit - Nuernberg 0-1

25' Dirty Harry(steas) 0-1

HT Blazek keeping Nuernberg is the match. Stunning saves to deny Zenit who are all over Nuernberg.

Blazek must learn how to parry the ball to the side. He gifted Zenit 3 great sitters by parriing the ball into the middle. He should maybe even be subed because that is a catastrophe to happen.

true, still prevented them from scoring.

That was more due to the sheer inability by Zenit though. They are bound to score from one of this chances sooner or later.

Cool, Am only 'watching' the match on kicker.de's live&news

AZ should win this one! Nice record they have then.

Zenit have turned the game around, they're 2-1 up now. Pogrebnyak scoring on 76 minutes and Ionov scoring on 79 minutes.

FT
Zenit - Nürnberg 2:2

Nürnberg always looked like conceding and finally managed this by ridiculous man-marking.

good result for everton me thinks

Frank -- you heard if Pato is playing for Getafe? Marca said yes, AS said no. If he doesn't my fantasy is well screwed.

Or HSVDV is really good

Decided to keep both Mathijsen and Rost and not go for VDV...risky but it's paying off so far because Hamburg haven't conceded.

Mathijssen is my first sub, but since that Van Gaal c**t benched Donk, he's currently playing. Guess that bastard will bring on Donk in injurytime, just to f@ck me. Hope he breaks his other leg too.

How does that Spurs sign line up?

Who'll be watching the Braga-Bayern match?

Braga's set to make an upset.
