Seems that the English clubs in the also-rans competition have a good chance of dominance this year.

Along with Everton’s win Wednesday night, Tottenham and Bolton both won their respective ties last night.

Tottenham strolled to a 2-0 lead at half-time of their match away to Slavia Prague although the headlines were taken by an error by Radek Cerny meaning that a final score of 2-1 in favour of the Spurs, although good, is not what they would have wanted after the first half.

Goals from, who else, Berbatov and Keane gave Tottenham the win but the game changed when Cerny dropped David Hubacek’s cross, allowing David Strihavka to bundle the ball home producing a frantic finish in which Tottenham managed to hang on. Paul Robinson was seen to be doing cartwheels and punching the air although this remains unconfirmed.

Not to be outdone, Bolton gained a very valuable win at home to Athletico Madrid, which is all the more impressive since the lesser Madrid are 4th in the Spanish table. They take a 1-0 lead into the second leg thanks to a Diouf goal with his only chance of the game. Athletico had a man sent off, Aguero who had only graced the pitch 12 minutes after coming on as substitute but the win will still please “the Ginger Mourinho”. Expect on onslaught on the Bolton in the second leg.
