England's refereeing body the PGMOL has opted to use longer amounts of stoppage time from this season in order to reduce time-wasting and better account for goal celebrations, substitutions and injuries. But some players and managers have criticised the move on player welfare grounds. "It's absolutely absurd," said Boban, who captained Croatia's famous 1998 World Cup team to a third-place finish.

Onana saved Jordan Larsson's penalty with the last kick of the gameAndre Onana saved a penalty in added time to give Manchester United a priceless Champions League victory against Copenhagen. On an emotional night that began with a lone piper walking out playing the United anthem 'We'll Never Die' as Old Trafford paid its respects to Sir Bobby Charlton, United fans thought Harry Maguire's first goal since February 2022 had given them the win they craved. But with the allotted four minutes of added time played, Scott McTominay conceded a penalty by swinging a high boot dangerously near Mohamed Elyounoussi's face. But Onana, who has come in for criticism since his £47m summer move from Inter Milan, turned Jordan Larsson's effort wide with what turned out to be the very last action of the game. The victory breathed new life into a Champions League campaign that had started with successive defeats for Erik ten Hag's side. It was another night when United's overall performance would not stand up to much scrutiny but, as on Saturday, the manner of the victory was secondary to the eventual outcome given the enormous legacy of the man they were trying to honour. "First half was not so good - a difficult game. They were well organised and it was difficult to create chances, we didn't get the right build-up so we didn't get the right tempo," said Erik ten Hag. "The second half was better. First half pressing did not happen on many occasions, so second half both things were better and the build-up was better. "There were more switches and we created more chances. The win was justified - but it was a narrow escape." ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/800/cpsprodpb/BDE4/production/_131521684_gettyimages-1754726540.jpg
The header was Maguire's second goal in the Champions League

Gabriel Jesus has scored in every Champions League game this seasonGabriel Jesus scored a goal and grabbed an assist to help Arsenal get back to winning ways in the Champions League with victory at Sevilla. After losing 2-1 to Lens in their previous European outing, the Gunners came through a difficult test against the seven-time Europa League winners. Gabriel Martinelli got the visitors off and running by marking his Champions League debut with a goal, racing on to Jesus' brilliant ball and rounding the goalkeeper in first-half stoppage time. Jesus then increased Arsenal's lead early in the second half with a superb strike into the top corner. Sevilla, backed by a vocal home crowd, got back into the game when Nemanja Gudelj headed in from a set-piece. From then on, Arsenal had to withstand some pressure as the hosts tried to find an equaliser, and David Raya tipped Mariano's shot on to the crossbar, although it may not have counted because of a possible handball. Mikel Arteta's side then suffered a late blow as Jesus went off with a suspected hamstring injury, but they held firm to secure a victory that moves them top of Group B.

Switzerland defender Manuel Akanji (number 25) scored on home soil for Manchester City after Anthony Racioppi saved from Ruben DiasManchester City maintained their perfect Champions League record with a hard-fought win at Young Boys. Erling Haaland scored twice in the second half, his first Champions League goals in six games, first with a penalty, then a fine curling effort. Reigning champions City had dominated proceedings and led in the 48th minute when Manuel Akanji tapped in. The Swiss hosts pulled level shortly after through Meschack Elia's exquisite chip. ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard/480/cpsprodpb/91C1/production/_131531373_gettyimages-1756625718.jpgNEWCASTLE UNITED FC 0 Borussia Dortmund 1 (Nmecha 45)

Felix Nmecha scored his first goal in the Champions LeagueNewcastle United suffered the first defeat of their Champions League campaign as Borussia Dortmund secured a vital victory on a rain-soaked night at St James' Park. Eddie Howe's side started their return to Europe's elite competition in impressive fashion with a draw against AC Milan in San Siro before a memorable thrashing of Paris St-Germain on Tyneside. Newcastle, however, could not rediscover that same intensity while Dortmund belied their status as Group F's bottom side prior to the game with an impressive display and secured victory through Felix Nmecha's composed finish in first-half added time. ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard/240/cpsprodpb/53A5/production/_131531412_gettyimages-1745422549.jpgHowe's side had their chances though, with Dortmund keeper Gregor Kobel thwarting Anthony Gordon twice and saving brilliantly from substitute Callum Wilson after the break. They also came desperately close to claiming a point in the closing stages when Wilson's header hit the bar and Gordon's shot was deflected on to the frame of the goal with seconds remaining. Dortmund kept Newcastle keeper Nick Pope busy too, particularly with an outstanding double save from Donyell Malen and Niclas Fullkrug in the first half. The result has turned this group into a tense and tight one, with Newcastle hoping for better fortune in their next game in Dortmund next month. CELTIC 2 (Furuhashi 4, Palma 28) Club Atlético Madrid 2 (Griezmann 25, Morata 53, De Paul sent off 82)
ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/800/cpsprodpb/AD7D/production/_131531444_20891638.jpg
Kyogo Furuhashi's fourth-minute strike was reward for Celtic's fast start against Atletico MadridCeltic earned their first Champions League point of the season but were denied a long-awaited home group stage victory in a ferocious contest with Atletico Madrid. Brendan Rodgers side led twice at a raucous Celtic Park, first through Kyogo Furuhashi's fourth-minute opener, then Luis Palma's angled strike, after Antonie Griezmann converted a penalty at the second attempt. But Alvaro Morata's second-half header levelled the contest again to leave Celtic bottom of the group at the halfway stage, five points adrift of Feyenoord and four and two behind Atletico and Lazio respectively. The draw means the Scottish champions retain a chance of claiming third place and a Europa League spot after Christmas, but progression in this competition is looking increasingly unlikely.

Julian Brandt scored his fifth Champions League goal in his 51st appearance in the competitionNewcastle's hopes of reaching the knockout stages of the Champions League were dented as they fell to defeat against Borussia Dortmund. Niclas Fullkrug opened the scoring for the hosts midway through the first half and Julian Brandt added a second from a superb counter attack late on as the Germans completed a Group F double over their English opponents. Newcastle's best chance fell to Joelinton just after the break, but the midfielder headed Tino Livramento's cross wide from five yards out. The Brazil international's effort was a rare clear sight at goal for Newcastle, with Edin Terzic's Dortmund side having controlled much of the first period. The hosts enjoyed the better opportunities despite a much-improved second-half display from the injury-hit visitors. "We weren't at our best today," said Newcastle manager Eddie Howe. ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard/240/cpsprodpb/43C0/production/_131644371_gettyimages-1780539967.jpg"The intensity and quality of our normal game was missing. We still had our moments and Joelinton's header is probably the key moment in the game from our perspective. He would back himself to score that if it came in again." The game was also subject to a short stoppage after the interval as fake golden bars and other objects were thrown onto the pitch from the 'Yellow Wall', part of a protest against Uefa's proposed Champions League reforms, with one banner reading 'You don't care about the sport - all you care about is money.' Newcastle's return to Europe's elite competition began in fine fashion with a draw away at AC Milan before they were thrashed by Paris St-Germain on Tyneside. However, they now face an uphill challenge to qualify for the knockout rounds, with Dortmund's double victory over Eddie Howe's men moving them three points clear of Newcastle, who travel to PSG in their penultimate group match. .......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Olivier Giroud scored his first Champions League goal of the seasonOlivier Giroud's thumping header secured AC Milan's first Champions League win of the season as the Italian side beat Paris St-Germain in Group F. The French forward netted the winner from Theo Hernandez's cross five minutes into the second half. Milan Skriniar had opened the scoring for PSG, heading in at the back post from a Marquinhos flick on. Rafael Leao swiftly equalised with an overhead kick from close range after Giroud's initial shot was parried. PSG drop to second in the group on six points, one behind leaders Borussia Dortmund who beat Newcastle on Tuesday, while Milan are third with five points - one more than Eddie Howe's side. ichef.bbci.co.uk/live-experience/cps/624/cpsprodpb/vivo/live/images/2023/11/7/af719e37-c03c-429e-9b06-464d0615f991.jpgRafael Leaoichef.bbci.co.uk/live-experience/cps/624/cpsprodpb/vivo/live/images/2023/11/7/67a55442-eac7-41ce-ae72-c79844551c38.jpgichef.bbci.co.uk/live-experience/cps/624/cpsprodpb/vivo/live/images/2023/11/7/4e0c257b-0775-46e7-b1b3-ecfc9c18bb9f.jpg

Alvaro Morata slides in to make it 2-0 to Atletico Madrid in first-half stoppage timeAntoine Griezmann and Alvaro Morata both scored twice as 10-man Celtic suffered a bruising loss at Atletico Madrid to remain rooted to the bottom of Champions League Group E. Daizen Maeda was sent off after a booking was reassessed via the monitor, with the visitors trailing to Griezmann's early deflected strike. Morata added a close-range finish before the interval and thundered in the fifth after great efforts from Griezmann and Samuel Lino, while Saul scuffed in the sixth. With two games remaining, Brendan Rodgers' side are five points adrift of Feyenoord in third place. ........................................................................................................................................................................

Pepe, 40 years and 254 days old, scored his side's second with a thumping 91st-minute finish, becoming the first player over 40 to score in European football's showpiece competition. Francesco Totti had held the oldest scorer record at 38 years and 59 days. Pepe is also the oldest outfield player in the competition's history. He broke that record when he started against the same opponents on October 25. Goalkeeper Marco Ballotta is the Champions League's oldest appearance maker - he was 43 years and 252 days old when he played for Lazio against Real Madrid in December 2007.
