CC is the Club Coefficient, which are determined by the results of clubs in the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League over the previous five seasons, as well as by the coefficient of the clubs' association.

“When I used to hear Muhammad Ali proclaim to the world that he was the greatest I used to smile,” Murphy once said. “The greatest of them all was a footballer named Duncan Edwards.”

All adds up though sadly - they have 4 European campaigns over the last 5 year period that is used. Plus as they are from england they get 20% of the countries coefficient, so are basically helped by that too.

Looks like Arsenal, Basel, Vienna & Bucharest are through anyway.

They are shocking. How Ballsacker and Jenkinson can class themselves as premier league footballers I'll never know.

This explains how it works:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_club_coefficient#Club_coefficient

Looks like it will be Zagreb instead of Vienna. Vienna have thrown away a 3 goal aggregate lead - 2-0 from the 1st leg and a 4th min OG to put them 1 up tonight.

The PAOK vs Schalke match is turning into a wee cracker. 1-1 from the first leg, Schalke went 1-0 up, pegged back 1-1. Schalke have had a man sent off, but score again 2-1. 17 year old Meyer came on as a sub, assisted the goal, and was promptly subbed back off to bring a more defensive midfielder on.

BANG. 2-2 PAOK with a class header.

Oh, and PAOK are playing in front of a basically empty stadium because of crowd trouble in last season's Europa League.

Draxler cutting in from the left and laying on a plate for the striker Szalai to get a brace. Tie over. EDIT: Full-time. Certainly wouldn't mind drawing Schalke in the Groups, they were shocking at the back.
