Mark Hughes was sent off as Manchester United crashed out of the UEFA Cup in a
dramatic penalty shoot-out in Moscow.  United had to play extra time with ten
men after Mark Hughes was sent off after a second bookable offence in the
88th minute.  Peter Schmeichel twice denied Moscow
with brilliant saves from Afanasyev and Talayev while Neil Webb hit the Torpedo
post late in normal time.  United led 2-0 on penalties but then
Bruce, McClair and Pallister all missed.


Cup Winners Cup:

APPOLLON LIMASSOL  1-2 LIVERPOOL    Agg: 2-8
Spoljaric 60           Rush 62
                       Hutchison 68
                       Stewart sent off

Goals from Ian Rush and Don Hutchison were good enough to win this second leg
but the Cypriots put up a much stronger performance than at Anfield.
The victory was soured by the sending off of Paul Stewart for what looked
like a harmless challenge on the Apollon goalkeeper.
Spoljaric put the home side ahead in the 55th minute but Ian Rush levelled
for Liverpool two minutes later.  Mark Walters showed a nice touch to set
up Hutchison who steered home to put Liverpool through to the second round.


Division One:

Swindon           1-0 Grimsby     

TRANMERE ROVERS 3-1 NOTTS COUNTY
Tranmere maintained their unbeaten home record with lively winger John
Morrissey creating all three goals.  John Aldridge headed Rovers in front
after 14 minutes and Jed Brannan grabbed the second with another header
in the 33rd minute.  Steve Mungall made it 3-0 for the home
side with a goal just after the break.  County rallied in the last half hour.
Sean Murphy headed in after 66 minutes and Eric Nixon had to produce two late
saves to deny Mark Draper.

WATFORD 2-1 SUNDERLAND
Two goals from midfielder Andy Hessenthaler gave Watford their first
win in nine games.  His first came in the 47th minute when
he wriggled clear in the penalty area to direct a low shot past Tim Carter.
Ten minutes later, Hessenthaler ran on to an excellent ball from Lee Nogan to
again drive low past Carter.  The game was marred by an ugly scene
when Tony Smith was guilty of a late tackle on Watford's Perry Suckling.
Don Goodman hit a late consolation for Sunderland three minutes from time.

Wimbledon midfielder Vinny Jones could face an unprecedented suspension for
promoting a "video nasty" which glorifies cheating and violence.
Jones will inevitably be charged with misconduct for his part in the video
'Soccer's Hard Men'.  But the FA also have the right to
implement suspensions as the ultimate deterrent and they may use that to make
an example of controversial Jones.  The video highlights the way some
players allegedly set out to hurt and intimidate opponents.

The FA are to examine the 'Soccer's Hard Men' video to decide what action
should be taken on Wimbledon midfielder Vinny Jones.
"We have got a copy of the video and are now examining it," said FA
spokesman David Bloomfield.  In the video Jones talks of such ploys
as elbowing opponents when jumping for headers, poking them in the eyes,
lifting them by their armpit hair, stepping on their toes and grabbing at
their private parts.  The film features such players as Billy
Bremner, Nobby Stiles and Norman Hunter

Vinny Jones has been labelled a "mosquito brain" by Wimbledon chairman
Sam Hammam over his soccer video nasty.  Hammam was clearly disgusted after
viewing the video saying: "Vinny is like an adopted son to me and I am very
disappointed. He has let himself down.  "He hasn't done anyone any favours and
I'll be talking to him about it. On that video he is talking with diarrhoea
in his mouth," added Hammam.  The Wimbledon chairman is anxious that
any FA action against Jones should not affect his club.

Preston manager Les Chapman has become the second managerial casualty of the
season - just two days after his 44th birthday.
Chapman had been in charge at Deepdale for two years since taking over the hot
seat from John McGrath.  He joined Preston as a player in 1986
and then became assistant to McGrath.  The axe came following Saturday's home
defeat by Hartlepool which left Preston lying 17th in the Second Division.
Sam Allardyce will take over as caretaker manager for the time being.

Everton striker Peter Beardsley is aiming to make a sooner-than-expected
return from a hamstring injury and force his way back into Graham Taylor's
England plans.

Carlisle United have appointed former Manchester United and Northern Ireland
international David McCreery as their new manager after the sacking of Aidan
McCaffery.
