Milan wreck Juve's perfect start, Chelsea march on (Reuters) Updated: 2005-10-31 09:04
A 4-2 win at Dundee United was enough to put Celtic top for the first time
this season on goal difference. Champions Rangers could only manage a 1-1 draw
with Inverness Caledonian Thistle and are fourth, 10 points behind the top two.
Dutch champions PSV Eindhoven retained their one-point lead at the top of the
first division with a 1-0 win over Twente Enschede on Saturday.
AZ Alkmaar won 2-0 at ADO Den Haag to remain second, equal on points but with
a better goal difference than third place Feyenoord, 3-1 winners at Willem II
Tilburg on Sunday.
It may be early season in the more temperate parts of Europe but in
Scandinavia it is the business end of the campaign.
Valerenga won the Norwegian championship on Saturday after their 2-2 draw at
Odd Grenland, becoming the first club apart from Rosenborg to win the title
since 1991.
It was Valerenga's fifth title, their first since 1984, and they needed the
point to pip promoted IK Start, who were favourites going into the last round of
matches but lost 3-1 to visiting Fredrikstad. Rosenborg finished seventh.
In Sweden, Djurgarden clinched the double on Saturday by beating second
division Atvidaberg 2-0 in the Swedish Cup final.
