UEFA Champions League Update: Hapoel Up On Benfica, Inter-Twente Scoreless
Inter came into this match even on points with Tottenham Hotspur, but thanks to Spurs’ tiebreaker advantage, the defending champions were in second in Group A. With Spurs up 2-0 on Werder Bremen at White Hart Lane, Inter’s chances to come back and win the group look slim. But with the Nerazuurri on almost on a month without a win, embattled coach Rafa Benítez should be as concerned with getting Inter back in the win column as he is tracking down Tottenham.
Elsewhere, Hapel Tel Aviv is looking for their first victory, up 1-0 on visiting Benfica. Eran Zahavi’s 24th minute header’s giving the Israel champions the league.
Manchester United and Rangers went to halftime scoreless, Schalke maintains their 2-0 over Lyon in Gelsenkerchin, Valencia’s up four on Bursaspor, while Barcelona’s up one at Panathinaikos.
