'Man Utd have no control'

Athletic Bilbao 0-0 Man Utd

Rob Schofield

BBC Radio 5 Live football reporter at San Mames

Familiar story for Manchester United, the wing-backs Patrick Dorgu and Noussair Mazraoui want to get high but when they do, the back-three are so exposed. Casemiro and Victor Lindelof have both been caught slow on the turn with red and white shirts flying at them.

The Williams brothers, Inaki on the left and Nico on the right, are so direct as the duel lightning rods for this Athletic Bilbao team.

United need to get Bruno Fernandes into the game. They have no control and are having to be purely reactionary.

Post

Athletic Bilbao 0-0 Man Utd

A good opportunity for the Premier League club after they are awarded a free-kick in a decent position deep inside Athletic Bilbao's half.

The delivery is from Bruno Fernandes but it's comfortably dealt with.

United are working hard but they're creating very little.

'Spurs can be exposed out wide'

Tottenham 1-0 Bodo/Glimt

When Bodo/Glimt get the ball Spurs are still staying in their 4-2-3-1 and they really can be exposed out wide.

Jens Hauge in midfield has just started to recognise that and is pulling off the back of Destiny Udogie and starting to get in some good areas.

Chelsea overcoming difficult conditions early on

Djurgarden 0-1 Chelsea

It might seem harsh to say but the conditions probably are a bigger challenge to Chelsea than the opponents.

If Djurgarden were to beat Chelsea, this would have been one of Europe's great upsets but the poor artificial pitch and the loud atmosphere in Stockholm make this game harder than it otherwise might be.

Tottenham 1-0 Bodo/Glimt

Bodo/Glimt make a first foray into the Spurs half but the attack is cut out and the hosts can get on the break.

A bit of sloppy play in the middle of the park gifts the ball back to the visitors.

Djurgarden 0-1 Chelsea

Jadon Sancho plays a lovely ball across the box in to the path of Tyrique George but his shot from a tight angle goes wide.

Marc Cucurella picks up the ball and has a shot but his effort goes narrowly wide of the post.

Chelsea have settled into the game now and are starting to take control.

'Bodo/Glimt sorting themselves out'

Tottenham 1-0 Bodo/Glimt

Rob Green

Former England goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

Bodo/Glimt are just about sorting themselves out off the ball. I think they have worked out that if they let Rodrigo Bentancur have the ball they will be in less peril than if other players have it.
