Real Madrid began their UEFA Champions League title defence with an emphatic 5-1 win over FC Basel at the Santiago Bernabau on Tuesday night.


The visitors shot themselves in the foot by scoring an own goal which put Real ahead before the homes side went on rampage with goals from Garth Bale, Ronaldo, James Rodriguez and Karim Benzema.

Arsenal were well entertained in Germany by Borussia Dortmund, a side they have met three times in the last four years.

The Germans outclassed their visitors as the duo Ciro Immobile and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had their names on the scorers sheet in style.

Juventus 2 – 0 Malmo FF
Olympiakos 3 – 2 Atletico Madrid
Liverpool 2 – 1 PFC Ludogorets Razgrad
