7 NOVEMBER 2000

LYON				1-0			OLYMPIAKOS
Laigle 2

Laigle headed in Vairelles cross.


VALENCIA			1-1			HEERENVEEN
Alonso 10						Venema 37

Angulo smashed a shot off the post, Pari's shot hit a defender then deflected
off Alonso past the 'keeper. Valencia's offside trap and another deflection
gave the Dutch a share of the points. 


25 OCTOBER 2000

HEERENVEEN			0-2			LYON
							Malbranque 68
							Marlet 78

Malbranque converted at the second attempt after Vonk saved his initial shot
and then played in Marlet with a super pass for Lyon's second. Lyon need to
beat Olympiakos in their final home match by a two goal margin to qualify.

Assist : Malbranque


OLYMPIAKOS			1-0			VALENCIA
Djordejevic 65 (Pen)

Deschamps fouled Giannakopoulos in the box, Djordejevic converted. Olympiakos
need a point to qualify but can also qualify if they are defeated by a one
goal margin.

Assist : Giannakopoulos


17 OCTOBER 2000

HEERENVEEN			1-0			OLYMPIAKOS
Jensen 83

Plenty of wayward shooting in this match. Jensen headed in Nurmela's free
kick.

Assist : Nurmela


LYON				1-2			VALENCIA
Marlet 90						Sanchez 45
							Baraja 86

Carew headed on a free kick and Sanchez looked miles offside when he shot
past Coupet. Carew missed an open goal, what's new? Albelda picked out Baraja
with a class through ball, Baraja rounded Coupet and tapped into an empty
net. Marlet pulled one back with a header from an awesome cross.

Red Card : Foe 62 (Lyon)
Assists : Carew, Albelda, Anderson


27 SEPTEMBER 2000

OLYMPIAKOS			2-0			HEERENVEEN
Giovanni 52, 69

Two headers from Giovanni saw off the Dutch, the first from Luciano's right wing
cross and the second from Zetterberg's corner.

Assists : Luciano, Zetterberg


VALENCIA			1-0			LYON
Zahovic 78

Mendieta's weak penalty was easily saved by Coupet. Zahovic finished off an
excellent passing move involving Kily Gonzalez and Sanchez to give Valencia a
deserved victory.

Assist : Sanchez


20 SEPTEMBER 2000

HEERENVEEN			0-1			VALENCIA
							Gonzalez 38

Mendieta was scythed down outside the box, the ref played the advantage,
the ball fell to Kily Gonzalez and his shot took a deflection off Venema into
the net.


OLYMPIAKOS			2-1			LYON
Ofori-Quaye 19						Foe 88
Giovanni 34

Olympiakos' first was a beautifully crafted goal, Zetterberg clipped in a cross
to Luciano, he controlled the ball on his chest and pulled a perfect cross back
to Ofori-Quaye who shot low past Coupet. Giovanni increased Olimpiakos' lead
with a sweet first time strike. Foe met Marlet's cross with a spectacular diving
header.

Assists : Luciano, Georgatos, Marlet


12 SEPTEMBER 2000

LYON				3-1			HEERENVEEN
Anderson 2						Talan 35
Houttuin 9 (og)
Marlet 58

Anderson ran onto a ball over the top from Foe and shot into the bottom corner.
Heerenveen made a complete mess of a free kick, bodies were everywhere and
the ball eventually bounced off Houttuin into his own net. Talan briefly got
Heerenveen back in the match following outrageous skill by Jensen before Marlet
ended any hope of a comeback with another scrappy goal.

Assists : Foe, Anderson, Jensen
Attendance : 30,000


VALENCIA			2-1			OLYMPIAKOS
Baraja 36						Djordjevic 74
Alonso 45

Baraja headed in Mendieta's corner, Alonso headed in his free kick. Angloma
deflected Djordjevic's shot past Canizares, why this isn't listed as an own
goal is beyond me.

Assists : Mendieta (x2)
Attendance : 44,000
