On Tuesday, the UEFA Champions League games of Group E-H second round took place.
Our neighbors, the Belarusian Borisov BATE club, caused a huge surprise by defeating last season's prestigious finalist of the Old Continent football tournament in front of their own fans with a score of 3-1, the Munich "Bayern" team.
In the first round of Group F matches, Viktor Goncharenko's players also unexpectedly beat the footballers of "Lille" away by the same margin, and now they are ranked first in the tournament table having collected the maximum number of points.
England's teams performed well - London's "Chelsea" won 4-0 against Farum's "Nordsjaelland" as visitors, while "Man Utd" won 2-1 against Cluj CFR in Romania.
"Barcelona" won in Lisbon with a dry result of 0-2 against the local "Benfica", but the victory was overshadowed by captain Carles Puyol's elbow injury.
The match between Turin's "Juventus" and Donetsk's "Shakhtar" ended in a 2-2 draw.
