⏪ Forest begin Dyche era with win; Roma stunned; Celtic victorious in UEL | OneFootball

That's all from us this evening. Thanks for tuning in!

FT: Nottingham Forest 2-0 Porto

What a start to life under Sean Dyche! It's been a dismal season so far for Forest, with Ange Postecoglou's tenure coming to an abrupt end over the weekend.

They've now started as they mean to go on with a big three points in Europe. Both were penalty goals, one from Morgan Gibbs-White and one from Igor Jesus, but no less crucial.

The perfect springboard with a tricky away at Bournemouth in the Premier League this weekend.

FT: Celtic 2-1 Sturm Graz

And breathe...

What a game for Celtic! Despite a nightmare first half for Brendan Rodgers' side, with two injuries and a goal conceded, they simply did not back down!

Two goals in quick succession from corners set them on their way for a crucial comeback. They've now secured their first win in the competition to lift them into the qualification places.

A crucial three points!

FT: Roma 1-2 Viktoria Plzeň

Roma stunned at the Stadio Olimpico! Two quick-fire goals in the first half proved to be enough for the visitors!

Despite a second half penalty from Dybala threatening a Roma comeback, the Italian side were unable to find that all-important equaliser.

A big result!

GOAAAL! FOREST MAKE IT TWO!

This time it's Igor Jesus who steps up and he makes no mistake from the spot.

Long way back for Porto now!

Nottingham Forest 2-0 Porto

PENALTY!!!

It's another one for Nottingham Forest! VAR steps in and awards a spot-kick to the hosts for a foul on Nicolò Savona from Martim Fernandes.

A big opportunity for Sean Dyche's side to put this to bed!

Nottingham Forest 1-0 Porto

A wide open contest...

20 minutes to go and it's all to play for at the City Ground. Porto very nearly equalised but were rightfully denied by VAR for offside.

Still, there's plenty of time for both sides to make an impact!

In the blink of an eye!

RED CARD!

After a nightmare first half, everything is going the hosts' way in the second!

Team news for the 8pm kick-offs!

Up first, Nottingham Forest vs Porto...

FT: Brann 3-0 Rangers

A dismal start to the Danny Röhl era for Rangers. Just simply not at the races as the hosts ran away with a comfortable victory.

That's three defeats from three games for the Scottish side in the Europa League this season and they're rooted to the bottom of the table on goal difference, as one of several teams yet to pick up any points.

FT: Go Ahead Eagles 2-1 Aston Villa

Despite a promising start and an early goal, Villa's missed chances came back to bite them. An equaliser before the break and a winner in the second half for the hosts.

Unai Emery's side could have put themselves back on level terms from the penalty spot but their spot-kick woes rumble on. A first defeat in Europe this season for the Midlands club.

It may not mean much in the grand scheme of things, but a disappointing night in the Netherlands overall.

GOAL! Brann make it three!

It's turning into a night to forget for new Rangers boss Danny Röhl. Noah Rolm with a composed finish for the hosts, and abysmal defending from the visitors.

Brann 3-0 Rangers

What is going on?!

Emi Buendía steps up but blazes his effort over the bar. Another big opportunity missed by the visitors. They still trail!

Go Ahead Eagles 2-1 Aston Villa

PENALTY!

WIDE!

Ian Maatsen gets a shot away from distance. The Villa defender's effort strayed well wide of the target.

The rain is pouring...

The weather isn't looking good in Deventer! Go Ahead Eagles boss, Melvin Boel, momentarily had an umbrella up before putting it away.

Both sides searching for a winner in the Netherlands.

Go Ahead Eagles 1-1 Aston Villa

Back underway!

A huge 45 minutes ahead for all teams!

HT scores:

Villa have failed to capitalise on early pressure and now find themselves level against Go Ahead Eagles. Rangers, on the other hand, have been second best up against Brann and the scoreline reflects that at the break.

GOAL! VILLA CONCEDE!

Unai Emery's side are rueing missed chances as the hosts find an equaliser. Villa don't deal with a ball into the box and Mathis Suray finds the net. The goal stands after a VAR review!

GOAAL! BRANN LEAD!

Rangers struggling...

The visitors aren't creating very much and are finding it difficult to build any momentum or rhythm.

Brann looking the likelier side to score, as things stand.

Brann 0-0 Rangers

Chance for Villa!

A corner from Buendia finds Mings in the box, but the defender cannot direct his header on target.

Go Ahead Eagles 0-1 Aston Villa

SAVE!

Brann's Ulrik Mathisen forces a save from Jack Butland. The hosts have had the better chances so far.

Brann 0-0 Rangers

VAR intervention...

Go Ahead Eagles defender Gerrit Nauber is penalised for a challenge on Lamare Bogarde. VAR takes a look but the decision is no red card, a yellow is deemed fair.

Nauber is then replaced by Calvin Twigt.

Go Ahead Eagles 0-1 Aston Villa

Rangers have shown intent in the early stages against Brann. They've already had an effort deflected wide.

The hosts holding firm so far.

Brann 0-0 Rangers

Should be 2-0!
