Standard de Liège on Matchday 5. Olympiacos, meanwhile, who also reached the first knockout round in 2007/08, held out for a goalless draw at AZ Alkmaar in their most recent fixture and therefore a draw will secure second place, while the Greek champions would also progress should Standard be unable to overcome AZ. Previous meetings • The 29 September fixture between the teams was the first time they had met in a competitive fixture. Although they dominated, Arsenal left it late for the second UEFA Champions League game in succession, goals in the last 12 minutes from Robin van Persie and Andrei Arshavin finally beating goalkeeper Antonis Nikopolidis. • Arsenal have lost just two of eleven fixtures against Greek opponents, winning six. The two reverses came away from home, at Panathinaikos FC in the 2001/02 first group stage and PAOK FC in the UEFA Cup first round in 1997/98. Arsenal lost both those games 1-0. Last updated 09/12/09 13:46:08CET Match background 3 Olympiacos FC - Arsenal FC Wednesday 9 December 2009 - 20.45CET (21.45 local time) MATCH PRESS KIT Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium, Piraeus • Olympiacos have won only two of 17 fixtures with English sides, losing 12. The last of those victories, both 1-0, came against Liverpool FC in the 2004/05 UEFA Champions League group stage, with the other coming against Arsenal's north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur FC in the 1972/73 UEFA Cup second round. Match background • Arsène Wenger's side are unbeaten in three away games in Europe's premier club competition, starting with their 2-0 win in Glasgow against Celtic FC in the play-offs. • Two successive wins have improved Olympiacos' home record in the UEFA Champions League. Before this season they had managed just two victories in ten fixtures with four defeats and four draws. Team ties • Zico, who was named Temuri Ketsbaia's successor as Olympiacos coach on Matchday 1, has tasted some success against English opposition this year, guiding PFC CSKA Moskva to a 3-1 aggregate win against Aston Villa FC in the UEFA Cup round of 32 in February. • The Brazilian has faced Premier League sides on six occasions as a coach, winning both home games including a 2-1 triumph against Chelsea FC in the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg while at Fenerbahçe SK. The away leg ended in a 2-0 defeat and elimination, however, and there was also a 1-0 reverse at Newcastle United FC in the 2005/06 UEFA Cup group stage before last season's 1-1 draw at Villa and the defeat at Arsenal on Matchday 2. • As a player, Zico set up all three goals in CR Flamengo's 3-0 win against Liverpool FC in the 1981 European-South American Cup in Tokyo. • On the opening day of 2006/07, Olof Mellberg, then with Villa, had the distinction of becoming the first player to score a competitive goal at Arsenal's new stadium. The game ended in a 1-1 draw, one of only two points Mellberg picked up in eleven Premier League meetings with the Gunners. • Enzo Maresca was an unused substitute for Sevilla FC when they lost 3-0 at Arsenal in the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League. • Matt Derbyshire helped Blackburn Rovers FC beat Arsenal 1-0 in an FA Cup fifth round replay in February 2007. Earlier that season he came on as a substitute in a 6-2 defeat for Blackburn at the Arsenal Stadium. • Didier Domi was at Newcastle United FC between 1998 and 2001 and was part of the team beaten 5-0 by Arsenal at Highbury on 9 December 2000.

'Early goal' The Greek champions begin their Group F campaign at home to Rosenborg BK on Tuesday with coach Trond Sollied calling on his side to make an early impression ahead of likely tougher tests against Real Madrid CF and Olympique Lyonnais. "There are 18 points up for grabs in the group and we must take as many as we can from each match," said Sollied, a former Rosenborg coach and player whose last experience of Champions League football was at the helm of Club Brugge KV. "If we can get an early goal [on Tuesday] it will certainly boost our chances." False dawns Olympiacos are well used to false dawns in Europe, although they were unlucky not to advance with their tally of ten points in Group A last season. At half-time on Matchday 6 they led Liverpool FC 1-0, and were still on course for the first knockout round at 2-1 down with four minutes to play when Steven Gerrard struck a stunning winner to propel the English team towards the next stage (and eventual glory) and the Piraeus outfit into the UEFA Cup.

    SEVERAL SPORTS, DIFFERENT NATIONS, ONE MISSION. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, it has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope, where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination”. Nelson Mandela, Laureus World Sports Awards (2000). The Association Our members are Multisport Clubs, i.e. clubs that promote several sport disciplines, both professional and grass-roots, within the same organization and denomination. The association involves nowadays 14 multisport Clubs form 12 countries who represent, all together, a major segment of the European Sport system (with thousands of titles ranging from Olympic medals to continental, national and youth titles) and mobilize hundreds of thousands of athletes, coaches, managers and millions of supporters, on a weekly basis. The Mission Recalling the principles and guidelines of the EU strategy on sport, Multisport clubs promote : ✓ sustainability, through a strengthened cooperation between professional and grass-roots disciplines ✓ fight against discrimination, while promoting disciplines that are often considered “minor” in Europe but are indeed very popular in different countries, thus enrolling numerous foreign nationals ✓ social inclusion while promoting disciplines in the framework of both Paralympic and Special Olympic Games ✓ fair play, disseminating among the respective supporters an “active” practice of sport with the club’s denomination, thus tackling the potential of violence and intolerance that unfortunately harms the purity of sport and re-conciliating families with sport events “I would like to congratulate you for this important step of setting up the European Association.

    AC Milan v FC Barcelona MATCH PRESS KIT Giuseppe Meazza, Milan Tuesday, 18 April 2006 - 20:45 CET Semi-finals - Matchday 11 AC Milan have never lost a UEFA Champions League semi-final and the Rossoneri will want to extend that sequence to five successes when they welcome FC Barcelona to San Siro for the first of what should be two enthralling encounters between superpowers of the European game. Goals galore · The Italian club will hope to lay the foundations for a second successive appearance in the final of Europe©s leading club competition by maintaining their imperious home form. They saw off FC Bayern München and then Olympique Lyonnais in the knockout rounds with second-leg victories by 4-1 and 3-1 respectively at San Siro. None of the other semi-finalists boast such potent results on home soil. · In this season©s tournament they have scored 13 goals in five games at San Siro, bagging three on three occasions and four on another. Since losing two home fixtures in the 2003/04 group stage, they have won 12 of 13 matches on their own turf with PSV Eindhoven, in this season©s group, the only visitors to escape unbeaten. Lyon fright · However, Milan did not arrive at this stage without an almighty fright in their quarter-final against Lyon. They were within two minutes of elimination on away goals when Filippo Inzaghi struck for the second time on the night to take his tally to four in this season©s competition. That puts him five behind Andriy Shevchenko who tops the UEFA Champions League scoring chart with nine.
