Six through to knock-out stage

Valencia, Braga, Wolfsburg, Aston Villa, Hamburg and Ajax booked their places in the knockout stages of the UEFA Cup after a pulsating evening of European football that delivered 26 goals across eight games.

Valencia got the point they needed to progress through to the next round from Group G thanks to Nikola Zigic’s second-half equaliser against Club Brugge in a 1-1 draw at the Mestalla.
