Turks Thrash Dinamo

An emphatic win for Galatasaray over Dinamo Bucharest helped the Turks to remain top of the group.

After 32 minutes Harry Kewell scored with a cross-cum shot, and then Shabani Nonda was assisted by Kader Keita for a second.

Nonda managed his second just after the break as Keita once again turned provider, and then Aydin Yilmaz won a penalty that Elano put away.

Dinamo won a consolation goal through Gabriel Bostina, but it was insufficient to mount a comeback.

Pana Edge Sturm

In a slow game in Athens, Pana got the job done against a Sturm Graz side that took too long to get going.

After a slow first half, Pana took the lead after Mario Sonnleitner fouled Dimitris Salpingidis in the box after 60 minutes, the Greek placing the resulting oenalty into the net.

Gordon Schildenfeld and Daniel Beichler almost equalised for the Austrians late on, but it was too little, too late.
