A quick summary of action around UEFA on TUE 11 SEP 2012.

• Cyprus 01-00 Iceland: Constantinos MAKRIDIS was the goalscoring hero as Cyprus won a competitive match for the first time in nearly three years...
• Norway 02-01 Slovenia: ...and Norway joined them in a four way tie for second place in Group E. John Arne RIISE’s penalty deep into stoppage time was the difference.
• Israel 00-04 Russia: The Russians sent notice to the rest of Group F with a second commanding performance. Aleksandr KERZHAKOV scored twice as Russia, along with Portugal, open a five point gap on all other teams in the group.
• Bulgaria 01-00 Armenia: Scoring twice in as many matches, Stanislav MANOLEV led the home side to a win that leaves them joint leaders, along with Italy, of Group B.
• Belgium 01-01 Croatia: Ivan PERIŠIĆ put the visitors ahead early in the first half, and Guillaume GILLET equalised late in the first half. Both sides, along with Serbia, are now level at the top of Group A.
• Greece 02-00 Lithuania: With all the play in Greece’s favour, the win was perhaps inevitable. Nonetheless, Sotiris NINIS’s opening goal only came in the 55th minute. The Greeks join Bosnia-Herzegovina in a tie for first place in Group G.
• England 01-01 Ukraine: Yevhen KONOPLYANKA’s blistering strike from distance nearly gave Ukraine three points, but the English salvaged a draw with an 87th minute penalty by Frank LAMPARD. England, Montenegro, and Poland all have four points to become joint leaders of Group H.
