VfB Stuttgart vs Sevilla FC Highlights

Sevilla secured a third successive victory, at the expense of Stuttgart, to continue their perfect start in Champions League Group G. The Spaniards were three up after a goal in each half by Sebastien Squillaci and one from Jesus Navas, and substitute Elson’s sweetly struck free-kick for Bundesliga side was mere consolation.

Werder Bremen vs Valencia Highlights

Werder Bremen secured a draw after regular time against Valencia in the final rehearsal ahead of their German Cup match against Union Berlin. But the Spaniards won the match in the penalty shootout of the Sparkasse Emsland Cup in Meppen. Hugo Almedia (29th) and Mesut Özil (31st – penalty) gave Werder the 2-0 lead. Valencia came back stronger after the break and Zigic scored twice (58th and 76th) to send the game into penalties.

In the shootout, the first three players – Carleto, Hunt and Jordi Alba – converted their penalties before Valencia keeper Cesar stopped Philipp Bargfrede’s shot. The next three shots were good as well by Zigic and Joaquin for Valencia and Naldo for Werder. But then again Cesar was better than Marcelo Moreno Martins to decide the game.
