DYNAMO KYIV 1-2 JUVENTUS
Shatskikh ran onto a pass with the Juve defence appealing for offside, he took a shot from wide on goal and although Chimenti got a touch he couldn't prevent
the ball from finding the net. Salas turned sharply to capitalise on a terrible blunder in the Kyiv penalty area. Fellow bench warmer Zalayeta played a
-two with Birindelli before lashing the ball into the roof of the net.
Assists : Baiocco, Zalayeta
FEYENOORD 2-3 NEWCASTLE
Given launched a free kick towards the Feyenoord box, Shearer helped on the ball and Bellamy slotted past Lodewijks at the end of the first half. Dyer pressed
a defender into losing possession, crossed to the back post and Viana picked his spot. Bombarda scored following a sustained period of Feyenoord pressure.
A terrible clearance by Jenas was sent back into the box and Lurling hit a brilliant half volley low into the net. Another long ball gave Newcastle the points
and a place in phase two. Shearer helped on the ball, Dyer lost his marker with a superb flick then tried to place his shot into the corner, Lodewijks saved,
Bellamy fired the ball back across goal, it hit Lodewijks and bounced into the net.
Newcastle become the first team to qualify after losing their opening three matches.
Assists : Shearer, Dyer, Kalou, ?

JUVENTUS 2-0 FEYENOORD
Thuram sent Camoranesi down the right, he whipped a cross to the back post and Di Vaio headed in. Buffon made one of THE greatest saves of all time
from a Paauwe free kick, absolutely breathtaking. Nedved and Camoranesi combined to give Di Vaio an easy second.
Assists : Camoranesi (x2)
NEWCASTLE 2-1 DYNAMO KYIV
Kyiv took the lead in the opening minutes of the second half with a trademark rapid fire counter attack. Belkevich knocked on El Kaddouri's throw in to Peev,
Peev cut inside Robert before slipping in Shatskikh with an excellent reverse pass and he hit a brilliant first time shot past Harper. Speed equalised from
a corner when Reva failed to hold his ferocious header. Shearer was pulling Husin's shirt so the ref gave him a penalty which he duly converted.
Assists : Peev, Solano (ck), Shearer (won pen)
Juve are through and guaranteed first place in the group due to their superior head to head record against Kyiv. Given they have nothing to play for and a
terrible away record I will be amazed if Kyiv blow this opportunity. Newcastle can only go through if they defeat Feyenoord and Juve avoid defeat against Kyiv.
