IT wasn’t a great night for most punters with two 0-0s in the Champions League and a weakened Spurs beating Chelsea on penalties.
Dynamo Kiev as expected beat Gent but no goals at Ferencvaros was a huge surprise after a 3-3 draw in Molde.
The Hungarians went through on away goals after earlier beating Celtic and Dinamo Zagreb so deserve their place.
Olympiakos duly booked their slot with a 0-0 draw at Omonia Nicosia after winning 2-0 in Athens.
It looked like going to plan in the EFL Cup when Timo Werner scored his first goal in Chelsea colours but after being outplayed in the first half Spurs netted late to force penalties and celebrated victory when Mason Mount’s spot-kick missed the target.
So with Real Sociedad losing earlier it was a tough night and I hope to do better on Wednesday.
There are another three Champions League qualifiers and hopefully matches between Midtjylland vs Slavia Prague, PAOK vs Krasnodar and Red Bull Salzburg vs Maccabi Tel Aviv will provide us with some decent action.
There are four games in the Carabao Cup including a Brighton vs Man United rematch but surely it won’t be as good as Saturday’s thriller. Man City visit Burnley, Everton entertain West Ham and Newcastle travel to Newport.
We also have action from La Liga, including Real Madrid vs Real Valldolid, and Serie A where the big game is Lazio vs Atalanta.
And in Germany Bayern Munich aim to bounce back from Saturday’s shock defeat at Hoffenheim by winning the Super Cup against Borussia Dortmund.
So there’s plenty to look at and I’ll put up tips in the morning.
