Not the night Gary Neville dreamed of, a 2-0 defeat on his managerial bow sees Valencia knocked out and Gent progress courtesy of their win over Zenit, who also go through.

Bayer Leverkusen drew 1-1 with Barcelona, that means they are out. Roma's 0-0 draw with BATE Borisov enough to keep the Italian side second in that group. They progress with just six points.

Porto are out, defeat at Chelsea did for them as Dynamo Kiev's win over Maccabi Tel Aviv sees them leapfrog the Portuguese side into second.

A great night for English teams in Europe, with Chelsea and Arsenal recording convincing wins. Arsenal's was particularly impressive as they weathered an early storm before superbly dismantling Olympiakos. 

It was deafening in the Stadio Georgios Karaiskaki at kick-off but almost silent at full time.
