FT: Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
Michael Brown
Former Manchester City midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveWe talk about Manchester United not scoring goals and not being creative enough but they certainly had enough efforts on target.
The penalty was dubious but then they were left under pressure late on.

FT: Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
"You just don't know what you are going to get from this Manchester United team," Paul Scholes tells TNT Sports when asked about his former club's chances of advancing.

Fenerbahce 1-3 Rangers
Image source, PA MediaAll over in Istanbul and WHAT A WIN FOR RANGERS.
Cyriel Dessers scored once, Vaclav Cerny twice. They had two more goals disallowed for offside.
Barry Ferguson's men will fancy their chances of reaching the last eight after that result.

FT: Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
I know this isn’t fashionable, but should we perhaps give Man Utd some credit for the draw? Difficult place to go and sets up the second leg nicely.

FT: AZ 1-0 Tottenham
The Spurs players applaud their travelling supporters and youngster Lucas Bergvall holds his hands up in apology, perhaps because of that first-half own goal.
To be fair, he recovered well from that setback and made a couple of important blocks thereafter.

Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
It's all set up nicely for the return leg at Old Trafford next Thursday.

Fenerbahce 1-3 Rangers
Into added time in Istanbul, where Rangers are on the brink of a stunning away win.

Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
Andre Onana has had his critics but he saved his team with that stop.
GREAT SAVE!published at 19:40 Greenwich Mean Time
Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
Alarm bells in the United defence. The visitors are crying out for the final whistle as Orri Oskarsson is denied by a wonderful one-handed save Andre Onana.

AZ 1-0 Tottenham
Image source, EPAWilson Odobert heads over from a cross from the right and that's it in Alkmaar.
So it's victory for AZ in the first leg, with Lucas Bergvall's first-half own goal separating the sides.
Spurs were far from their best and would have been facing a larger deficit but for a couple of fine saves from Guglielmo Vicario either side of half-time.
Work to do in next Thursday's second leg if Spurs are to make the quarter-finals.

Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
Michael Brown
Former Manchester City midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveGood start from Toby Collyer. We know how much he can run - that will give them energy and desire.

AZ 1-0 Tottenham
And indeed Dominic Solanke can't continue.
He goes off holding his left hip and lower back.
Dane Scarlett is on for the final couple of minutes.

Real Sociedad 1-1 Man Utd
Five additional minutes in San Sebastian. Everything to play for.

AZ 1-0 Tottenham
Not a good sight for Spurs fans as Dominic Solanke, making his first appearance since mid-January, smacks the floor repeatedly after being sandwiched by the AZ goalkeeper and a defender when challenging for a ball in the air.
He's getting some treatment as we enter three additional minutes in the Netherlands.

Copenhagen 1-2 Chelsea
They are playing four additional minutes in Copenhagen. Will Chelsea see it out and take a lead back to Stamford Bridge?
