Yeah, out in qualifying, lost to Braga 4-2 on aggregate.
Dinamo Zagreb & Fenerbahce also went out tonight, and Ajax - just got through on away goals a large thanks to Suarez - again.

For those keeping track, Dynamo Kiev also went through. Shevchenko supplied two assists (3 total Dynamo goals scored) today. (per uefa.com)
Oddly (or not), this fish is no longer angry with Shevchenko. It's good to see him doing well.

Rosenborg faced Sweden's AIK over two legs, in a Scandinavian derby... and of course, the Norwegians came out on top with a 4-1 aggregate score.

Here's the draw for the play off round of this year's CL (from uefa.com)

Rosenborg BK (NOR) - FC København (DEN)
FC Basel 1893 (SUI) - FC Sheriff (MDA)
AC Sparta Praha (CZE) - MŠK Žilina (SVK)
FK Partizan (SRB) - RSC Anderlecht (BEL)
League Route
BSC Young Boys (SUI) - Tottenham Hotspur FC (ENG)
SC Braga (POR) - Sevilla FC (ESP)

I just find it funny due to the fact at the time they complained about getting Arsenal and showed no respect to other teams last season qualifying presuming they'd beat them, now they go out from a fairly minnow team!

So, the first legs of today's CL qualification ties are underway, and happily so. At half time, these two scores stand out:
Rosenborg 1-0 FC København
Young Boys (!!!) 3-1 Tottenham.
Oh Spurs, Spurs... you are a unique little something aren't you?

Aug 17 2010, 11:22 PM
Young Boys needed to win by 3 in my opinion, so to only win by 1 and give up 2 away goals is a terrible score. Spurs will go through comfortable, unfortunately.

I think my dream CL group would see Milan and Rangers paired together in the same group for the first time since the competition began in '92, and both going through to the next stage.
I would, however, be a Rangers fan during the matches between the two so I'd keep a very low profile on here during those matches

They're an extremely undignified lot. Always have been. I just Utrecht can turn their Europa league tie around in the second leg.

Pazzo is having a good day today.
HT Samp 2-0 Bremen, both goals by Pazzini.
EDIT: Cassano decided to play too. Outrageous backheel goal to make it 3-0. Aiee. But Rosenberg scores in added time so we go to extra time, I believe.

That's disappointing- I wanted Sampdoria to go through. Braga beating Sevilla 3:4 away is pretty surprising. So there will be 3 Spanish and 3 Italian clubs in the group stage.

Boy I feel sorry for Sampdoria, they were so close. Werder played superbly from second half and up though, so I guess they deserved to pass overall.

If Spurs can't make it through, we'll have 4 biggest footballing nations with only 3 representatives for this year's Champions League. Spain, Italy, England and Germany.

I think Werder played horrible football for the entire first AND second half. Rosenberg just got lucky. But in extra time Samp had no power left.

Well, Germany can't have more than 3 clubs in the CL, so three is as much as it gets.

Why are people moaning about United's draw, Valencia won't be pushovers even though they've lost their stars, Rangers won't be that easy, at least away. The Turkish champions, away - Turkey, you're saying that's going to be easy?! Chelsea and Arsenal by far got the better draws out of the English teams, yet again, as usual.
We without doubt have the group of death. Then I'd probably say Inter's after that. Everyone in Group B must be laughing that is some low-quality CL group.
