Fiorentina went 1-up on the night, 2-all on aggregate, after 28 minutes with Bayern as Butt could only palm a shot out to the left of his goal and Juan Manuel Vargas was racing in to crash a brilliant effort into high into the net. In the 54th minute Fiorentina bagged their second of the game as a diagonal cross from the right came fizzed into the penalty area, Gilardino (offside?) stopped the ball dead with a marvellous touch, and Stevan Jovetic arrived on the scene to smash the ball home from about 10 yards. Six minutes later Bayern clawed themselves back in the tie when Franck Ribery crossed a lovely ball in from the left to Mark van Bommel, who passed his shot Frey’s outstretched arm from 20 yards out. In a breathtaking second half Fiorentina retook the lead as Stefan Jovetic brushes Van Buyten to one side to get on the end of a Gilardino nod-down and poke the ball past Butt. But then Arjen Robben took over with a stunning strike to put Bayern back in the the driving seat as the Dutchman cut in front the right and unleashed a 25-yard tomahawk into top corner.
In Champions i viola battono il Bayern Monaco 3-2, ma in virtù del 2-1 dell’andata passano i tedeschi. Avanti 2-0 con Vargas e Jovetic, e poi 3-1, la squadra di Prandelli gioca alla grande, ma è punita da uno spettacolare gol di Robben da circa 25 metri.

Arsenal, without captain Fabregas, bagged the crucial goal to bring the aggregate score to 2-all against Porto after just 10 minutes. Nasri playing a dangerous ball into Arshavin in the box, the Russian was closed down by Helton and Coelho, and Nicklas Bendtner was on hand to slide in the rebound. Porto shot themselves in the foot 15 minutes later when they handed Arshavin possession outside the box, the Russian brilliantly weaved his way into the danger area where he crossed for Bendtner who bagged his second of the game. Andrei Arshavin should have put the tie to bed when Nasri picked the Russian out, unmarked, at the back post but he missed the open net and sent his shot over the bar. After the break Samir Nasri scored one of the goals of the season to put Arsenal 3-up as the Frenchman when on a mazy run past three Porto defence before darting into the box and flashing a bullet into the far corner. The Gunners killed the match with a pacey fourth minutes later, Arshavin lead a counter-attack, carried the ball upfield with Emmanuel Eboue eventually rounding the keeper and coolly finishing. A late Nicklas Bendtner penalty gave the Dane his hattrick goal on a wonderful night for the Gunners.

Kurt Busch was running out front with three laps to go when things really got interesting. First, a frightening crash that seemed intentional between two feuding drivers. Then, another spinning, slamming melee before the white flag came out. Not to worry. Busch survived a couple of overtime restarts and 16 extra laps to win again Sunday at Atlanta Motor Speedway, a race marred by accusations that Carl Edwards purposely wrecked Brad Keselowski’s car, sending it hurtling toward the main stands upside down.
Busch won the spring race at the 1.54-mile trioval for the second year in a row, beating Matt Kenseth to the line by nearly half a second in the Kobalt Tools 500. Juan Pablo Montoya was third, followed by Kasey Kahne and Paul Menard.
Mikel Arteta volleyed home at the back post to put Everton in front. Just before the half hour Yakubu missed a pen and a couple of minutes later Tom Cairney equalised with a quality left-footed hit. Arteta sidefooted Everton’s second after a Pienaar backheel to give the Toffees a half-time lead. In the second half Goodison witnessed a spanking, Richard Garcia scored a comical own goal, Landon Donovan rifled in the fourth and Jack Rodwell claimed the fifth.
Quarto pareggio nelle ultime cinque gare per la squadra di Mourinho, che resta a +4 sul Milan. Inter spenta per oltre 70′: poche palle giocabili per l’ex Milito, mentre Balotelli è in serata storta. I rossoblù, ordinati in difesa, concedono molto poco.
