UEFA CL Group B: Inter Advance To Sweet 16 Dispite Home Loss; Anorthosis Blow 2-Goal Home Lead And Fall To Third
Wednesday action in Group B:
At Rome:
Jose Sarriegi scored the only goal of the match (69', pictured here) as Panathinaikos moved into second place in Group B with their 1-0 road win over Inter Milan. Despite the defeat the Nerozzurri advanced to the knockout stage.
At Nicosia, Cyprus:
Thanks to late second-half goals from Diego (PK-72') and Hugo Almeida (87'), Werder Bremen came back from a two-goal deficit to gain a 2-2 draw with Anorthosis Famagusta FC. Despite the win, the best the German club can do is finish third. Pictured here are Werder's Clemens Fritz taking the ball away from the Cypriot club's Hawar Taher.
