Champions League roundupShare
Thank you so much for joining me for these Champions League matches. There were 23 goals and a red card so we weren’t short on action, you can recap some of it with the reports below. I will catch you soon.
Aston Villa’s Emiliano Buendia told TNT Sports:
double quotation markVery good. These type of teams come in here with energy and they want to show their character. We respect them a lot.
I should score more. I had chances. I’m pleased. Important win.
A round-up of all of today’s fixtures:
ShareFull time: Sporting 2-3 LASK
What a huge result for LASK, they beat last season’s quarter-finalists in Sporting. That will give them a huge boost in confidence as they head into the rest of the competition.
ShareFull time: Aston Villa 3-1 Viking
Aston Villa had been on top of the table at 3-0 but Viking getting a goal back means they won’t end the night there. A good performance from Villa though.
ShareFull time: Inter Milan 1-0 Shakhtar
Inter Milan went down to 11 but they come away with all three points.
ShareFull time: Real Madrid 4-1 RB Leipzig
Wow, what a match in the end. It was a bit sluggish at times but that second half was mesmerising. The last two goals in particular outstanding.
ShareFull time: Club Brugge 3-0 Lens
It was a professional performance from Club Brugge with Lens blown away.
ShareFull time: Real Betis 1-0 Feyenoord
A penalty from Isco is the difference in Spain.
ShareFull time: Bayern Munich 2-2 Arsenal
Two England internationals scored in the second half with Harry Kane scoring a penalty and Declan Rice finishing off a well worked goal. But the spoils are shared in Germany.

The most vulnerable when you score and that is proof.
Real Madrid 3-0 RB Leipzig, 84 min: It was passed back to Mbappe and he took it so casually. He was on the edge of the box and he just whips it in the top corner. WOW.

Bayern Munich 2-1 Arsenal, 63 min: Kane will be hoping to add the Ballon d’Or to his trophy cabinet this Sunday and if he does it is thanks to goals and penalties like the one he has just scored. Timber blocked a shot from Kane to create the opportunity for a penalty and the England captain scores.
