Another sensational Champions League evening unfolded this Tuesday across Europe. Like the first half, there was spectacle, goals; action on all the pitches. Let’s start with Gelsenkirchen, where Chelsea, visiting Schalke 04, had a delightful time by dominating Prince Boateng’s teammates 0-3. Fernando Torres scored a double for the Blues (watch one of his goals in the video below), with Hazard taking charge for the third.
AC Milan and FC Barcelona put on a show at San Siro. With a very energetic Italian team, Robinho opened the scoring before Lionel Messi equalized. Everything was decided in the first half in this game.
Atletico Madrid didn’t leave any details behind against Austria Vienna. With their scoring machine, Diego Costa, author of a double, the Spaniards blew away the Austrian club 3-0 on the road. Here’s one of Costa’s goals.
Marseille can say goodbye to the Champions League!
With three defeats in as many matches since the start of the competition, Olympique de Marseille will have difficulty qualifying for the next stage of the tournament. The Phocaeans lost again at the Vélodrome to the Italians of Naples 1-2. Callejon and Zapata scored, and André Ayew reduced the score for OM.
Dortmund created a surprise in England against Arsenal. The Marsupials won 2-1 and repositioned themselves in the group. Lewandowski scored the second goal. Mkhitaryan opened the scoring for the Germans (watch his goal below) before Giroud equalized.
