CFL Champions Stay Unbeaten. Following recent dropped points at home to closest rivals Parma, Ajax had a tricky next home game with a tie with the side that pushed them to the wire last season, runners up Benfica. However the unbeaten CFL champions kept their record in tact with a 2-1 home win over their Portuguese rivals to leave them five points clear of their visitors and at the top of the table a point clear of Parma. Arjen Robben and Cristiano Ronaldo got the goals to keep the record going and earned he home side a crucial three points to keep them at the top of the league table. Swiss international Grichting got a consolation goal but it wasn’t enough to get a share of the points for Benfica, or allow Parma to move to the top of the table. The Italians stays in second place after a 2-0 win on the road at former leaders Inter Milan. Midfielder Mikel and Capel with the goals that keep them just behind the champions and a point clear of third placed Deportivo la Coruna. The Spanish side keep their strong start to the season going with a 3-2 win at PSV Eindhoven. German international Tim Borowski with the critical winning goal at their Dutch hosts. Dynamo Kiev bounced back from a clutch of mediocre performances of late with a 5-0 humiliation of bottom of the table Fiorentina. Transfer listed Raul netted a hat trick for the former champions, with Juan Veron and Goran Pandev also chipping in for the Ukrainians as they move back to mid table safety. SAFL champions Estudiantes also saw off major title rivals this turn at home with the 2-0 victory over Sao Paulo this week. Roque Santa Cruz and Robinho keep the champions on course with a three point lead from Racing Club in tact. Sao Paulo slip out of the top five places after recent losses to the big two teams the champions and Racing Club. A 2-1 home win over Palmeiras move Racing Club in second place and the main chasers to the leaders, as Lanus slip down to third after going down to a 1-0 loss at Argentino Juniors. Brazilian’s Santos move into the top five at Sao Paulo’s expense with a 3-0 win over Newells Old Boys with veteran Ariel Ortega scoring twice in the win for the home side. Manchester City move into third place in the BFL table and with it become the main chasers to joint leaders Hibernian and Celtic. A 2-1 win at Everton sees the Eastlands side go up the table, but say six points off the pace set by the joint leaders. Wayne Rooney and Clint Dempsey got the goals to cancel out an effort from Andy Van Der Meyde for the hosts. Champions Hibernian keep their goal difference over Celtic after a 3-0 win at home over Nottingham Forest. Craig Bellamy scored twice on his departure for the home side, with Ashley Young opening the scoring in Edinburgh. Celtic however recover from their only loss, at the hand of the champions with a 2-1 win at Southampton. Robbie Keane and Yossi Benayoun got the goals on the road to keep the former champions on pace with their rivals from Glasgow. Middlesbrough and Manchester United make up the top five teams, but hold each other to a goalless draw in the North East to leave them a couple of points further back of their ultimate targets from Scotland.
