🔴 UCL LIVE: PSV double Girona lead; Six key clashes to follow

Cue the anthem! The Champions League is back on Tuesday with a plethora of action across Europe.

Keep up to date with all the action here.


PSV v Girona

Scorers: Flamingo 16′, Tillman 33′

Dutch side PSV Eindhoven welcome LaLiga club Girona to town looking for their first win of the 2024/25 Champions League season.

Ryan Flamingo put them in the driver’s seat after bundling home Malik Tillman’s throw-in. It is his first competition goal from his first shot on target.

The American then put his name on the scoresheet after driving into the box. Girona allowed him the space, and he rifled home a right footed shot from the left side.


Slovan Bratislava v Dinamo Zagreb

Scorers: Strelec 5′; Špikić 10′, Sučić 30′

Over in Slovakia, Slovan Bratislava face Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb.

The hosts got off to a flying start when David Strelec pounced from point-blank range after the visitors failed to clear a saved attempt.

Minutes later, however, Dario Špikić squeezed home the equaliser at the near post.

Slovan Bratislava later had calls for a first half penalty fell on deaf ears, and the referee stood with his decision despite a VAR check.

After narrowly conceding a spot kick, Petar Sučić headed home a curling cross to turn the game around.


Coming up later…

Buckle up!
