Sevilla 1-4 Borussia Dortmund
JUDE BELLINGHAM SCORED a stunning goal and set up the opener for Raphael Guerreiro as he led Borussia Dortmund to a convincing 4-1 win at Sevilla in Uefa Champions League Group G.
Captaining his side at the age of just 19, Bellingham jinked into the left side of the box to double his side’s lead in the 41st minute before before Karim Ademeyi added a third.
Youssef En-Nesyri scored a consolation for Sevilla early in the second half before Julian Brandt completed the scoring for the Bellingham-inspired hosts.
After the game, Sevilla confirmed the departure of head coach Julen Lopetegui, with reports in Spain claiming he is set to be replaced by Jorge Sampaoli.

Real Madrid 2-1 Shakhtar Donetsk
Defending champions Real Madrid were forced to ride their luck to extend their 100 per cent start at the top of Group F with a 2-1 win over Shakhtar Donetsk at the Santiago Bernebeu.
The hosts looked set to coast to victory after Rodrygo fired a long-range opener then Vinicius Junior doubled their advantage with less than half an hour on the clock.
But Shakhtar replied through a thunderous volley from Oleksandr Zubkov before the break and the visitors continued to threaten to snatch an equaliser on the counter-attack.
Benfica 1-1 PSG
A brilliant strike from Lionel Messi was not enough for Paris St Germain to preserve their perfect start in Group H as they were held to a 1-1 draw at Benfica.
Messi curled a 22nd-minute opener past home keeper Odysseas Vlachodimos but his effort was cancelled out by a 41st-minute own goal by Danilo Pereira which keeps the hosts level at the top of the group.

Juventus 3-1 Maccabi Haifa
Two goals from Adrien Rabiot got Juventus up and running at the third time of asking as they swept to a 3-1 win over Maccabi Haifa in Turin.
Starting pointless after their first two games, Rabiot grabbed a 35th-minute opener before Dusan Vlahovic doubled Juve’s lead early in the second half.
Dean David set up a nervy finish for the hosts when he reduced the deficit in the 75th minute but Rabiot’s second seven minutes from time wrapped up an overdue victory.

Beating Kerry at their own game. Ha ha hilarious
What’s corks game Connor?
Hard luck boys brian begley was a massive loss when he went off they can leave with their heads held high a valiant effort by the boys
@ AC sour grapes much!!! For sure Cork have problems at the moment but who dosent?? but their are signs in Cork that the development squads are coming good, last years minor hurlers and footballers were extremely unlucky not to progress out of Munster at least, It might take a few years but things are set to improove.Its fair to say that kerry might have problems of their own if ye cared to look a bit closer no All-Ireland senior club title in years, only two Minor titles in years and two senior All-irelands since 07 that they shouldnt and did not deserve to win, and now no Muns U21 title since 2008 and tonights loss casts a doubt about some of these highly rated players in kerry and remember limerick and Tipp ran them close in yer own backyard too so maybe they are not as good as ye would like to think.
Cork may be wining the last number of years titles but the reality is that cork gaa is in a sad state. Mr Frankie bowel has absolutely ruined and destroyed Cork gaa to the point that he is a total and utter sole responsibility for cork GAA. #shameonyoumurphy
Pity Jack cldnt bring on David Clifford …considering he man of the week…ok nxt year fot Jack n lads…
Murphy seems to get the blame for all corks ills, easy to pin the blame on him I suppose, not a problem when he’s getting a player off on some long forgotten technicality though
Name another thing he did other than that?
Who exactly did he “get off” Anthony ??It seems a myth has grown around Frank murphy over the years if you have inside info on the players frank got off up in kilkenny maybe you tell us all.
Alas no inside line, but it’s laughable that all the ills of cork GAA are placed at frank murphys feet
I’ve heard the same!!!!!! It must be true so thanks for that
@Anthony Of course its true!!! be sure to tell everyone just because you heard it good lad.
@Anthony So your just repeating “something you heard” well “Ive heard Brian cody does not allow Richie Hogan have sugar in his tea!! how does that sound??
