Brugge 4-3 in Milan
Club Brugge stunned Inter Milan in a seven-goal thriller, led by a hat-trick from striker Nicolò Tresoldi. He had already hit the post before converting a 30th-minute penalty after Hakan Çalhanoğlu fouled Carlos Forbs. Lautaro Martínez equalised before half-time, but Tresoldi restored the lead with a tap-in after Forbs exploited a defensive mix-up, and completed his hat-trick on 74 minutes.
Martínez struck again on 81 minutes to set up a tense finish, but Romeo Vermant made it 4-2 three minutes from time. Ange-Yoan Bonny's stoppage-time goal for Inter came too late.
Viking 3-3 Bayern
In Stavanger, Norway's Viking were ahead after 71 seconds through Gianni Stensness and led 2-0 at half-time after Peter Christiansen scored. Harry Kane dragged Bayern back with a 54th-minute penalty and a header six minutes later, and Luis Díaz tapped in to make it 3-2. But Michael Olise was sent off for a second yellow card minutes later, and substitute Herman Haugen headed a late equaliser at the far post.
