CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2010 -2011 GROUP C D RESULTS | BURSASPOR 0 VALENCIA CF 4 | FC BARCELONA 5 - PANATHINAIKOS 1 | VIDEO TINO COSTA GOAL

SPANISH FOOTBALL got off to a great start in the 2010 - 2011 CHAMPIONS LEAGUE Group qualifiers with its two representatives tonight winning their respective games & in magnificent fashion with plenty of goals.

VALENCIA CF travelled to Turkey for its Group C opener against Turkish Champs BURSASPOR & won 0 -4. Valencia started in spectacular fashion with his "cracker" from TINO COSTA who scored in the 15th min. Watch the VIDEO of the Tino Costa goal, pure magic:

From here, with some minor local resistence, Valencia lifted the gears & scored its second in the 40th min via ADURIZ with a header, another came in the 68th min thanks to PABLO HERNANDEZ & ROBERTO SOLDADO scored the fourth in the 76th min. Solid match by Valencia CF!

Spanish FootballThe other Spanish representative FC BARCELONA hosted Greeks PANATHINAIKOS in the Group D opener with a crushing 5-1 victory result to Barça. The Spanish Champions did not take any risks & put on the full team from the start with all its 8 Spanish World Champions along with LEO MESSI who was the "man of the match". The result could have been higher had Messi not missed a penalty in the 55th min & Pedro a sitter later on.

The Greeks managed to score first in the 19th min via GOVOU, but that served to wake the "Barça Beast" as the Football Touch Machine went into gear. The damage was all done the following 25 mins with Barça equalizing in the 21st min via MESSI.

DAVID VILLA got into the act with his first Champions League goal with Barça & the teams second in the 32nd min. Then soon after LEO MESSI scored a brilliant goal in the 44th min to have Barça 1- 3 up by half time.

Spanish Soccer
The goals in the second half continued with PEDRO scoring the teams fourth after Messi practically did the business again in the 78th & Messi again helped with Barça´s fifth in the 93rd min when DANI ALVES scored.

Great performance by FC Barcelona who could have scored more, but didn´t due to a certain relaxation in their attitude, which the Greeks would have appreciated.

Tomorrow REAL MADRID plays AJAX OF AMSTERDAM in their Group match qualifier.

Some crazy game it was...that one Panathinaikos goal was like out of nowhere. But Barca was great! If they had tried more, the score would´ve gotten ugly. Too bad Messi didn´t score a hat-trick, his penalty was a failure :(
