GOALFLASHES AND MAJOR INCIDENTS (all times GMT)GOALFLASHES AND MAJOR INCIDENTS (all times GMT)
By Dan WarrenBy Dan Warren
2032: HALF-TIME Arsenal 0-0 CSKA MoscowTomas Rosicky's staggering miss is the major talking point after a half in which the Gunners have dominated without being able to find a goal.
2032: HALF-TIME Benfica 2-0 CelticGordon Strachan's side have shored things up after their bad start, but they have a lot to do to get anything out of their trip to Lisbon.
2031: HALF-TIME Copenhagen 0-0 Man UtdNot much drama in Denmark, although a draw will inch United to the brink of qualification for the next stage.
2031: Extraordinary. It's almost as if Arsenal don't want to score. Thierry Henry cuts in from the left and squares the ball to Tomas Rosicky, who contrives to tap the ball into the arms of Igor Akinfeev from three yards with the goal at his mercy. It is quite possibly miss of the season.
2030: GOAL Hamburg 0-1 FC PortoLucho Gonzalez piles more misery on to hapless Hamburg as he scores one minute before half-time. The German side have lost all three of their matches in the competition this season to date.
2027: Not much happening at Copenhagen, where it looks like the biggest talking point could be the terrible surface. Apparently the stadium has been used for rock concerts and it's not helped the pitch one bit.2027: Not much happening at Copenhagen, where it looks like the biggest talking point could be the terrible surface.

2010: SENDING OFFAEK Athens are yet to win a Champions League game in 21 attempts - but they've got a chance as they will play the last 70 minutes against Lille against 10 men.
