FT There is the final whistle in Athens and it ends 2-2. All in all, probably a fair result. Panathinaikos dominated for large stretches of the game but Bremen looked dangerous each time their broke and took their chances well
73' Salpingidis almost makes it three for Panathinaikos pinging his shot from outside the box off the crossbar!
83' GOAL BREMEN! Bremen level up! Again! Hugo Almeida manages to wriggle free of his marker on the penalty spot and leaps up to head back across goal after receiving the ball from Boesnisch on the right wing
68' GOAL PANATHINAIKOS! Mantzios grabs his second of the day bravely heading home a corner back across the goal from the far post, despite the boot of Gilberto flying towards him!
58' Simao is booked for unsporting behaviour
49' Frings whips a cross into the box and it's a great chance for Bremen to take the lead again but Almeida's header is saved by Tzorvas in the centre of the goal
46' Bremen get the second half underway ...
HT There's the half-time whistle in Athens. Panathinaikos have really dominated this first 45 minutes but they are having to settle for a 1-1 scoreline at the interval thanks to a great peice of poaching from the visiting team
36' GOAL PANATHINAIKOS! The Greek side have got things back on level terms! The cross into the box completely fools the Bremend defence as they think it will be floated as near to the goal as possible. But instead it is cut back towards the edge of the box and Mantzios is left to head home unchallenged
29' GOAL BREMEN! Completely against the run of play the away team take the lead. Vzil whips in a free kick from the left wing and Mertesacker beats the offside trap. His first touch looks suspiciously like a hand-ball (albeit accidental) but there is nothing doing for Pana and the German is free to volley home from four yards out
28' Bad news for Panathinaikos as Pizarro is forced to go off with an injury. Rosenberg comes on as a replacement
3' Pizarro almost gets Pana off to a great start with his foot just milimetres away from connecting with a cross at the far post
