Soccer Betting Lines

11/08/2007 - Munich, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kevin Davies scored in the 82nd minute as Bolton earned a surprising 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich in Group F of the UEFA Cup on Thursday.

Ricardo Gardner gave Bolton the lead in the eighth minute, but Lukas Podolski scored two goals as Bayern Munich rallied for the second game in a row in the UEFA Cup.

Bayern needed an 86th minute goal from Miroslav Klose and a stoppage-time goal from Toni Kroos to win its first game in Group F, 3-2 over Red Star Belgrade.

The Bundesliga leaders couldn't hold off Bolton, though, surrendering the late equalizer to disappoint 66,000 fans at the Fubball Arena Munchen.

Gardner took advantage of poor defending for the early goal when Bayern failed to clear a throw-in. Gardner took a pass from Daniel Braaten and scored off a deflection.

Podolski, who took a reserve role this season with Bayern Munich following the signings of Luca Toni and Klose, scored his first goal in the 30th.

Midfielders Franck Ribery and Bastian Schweinsteiger helped set up the score, which Podolski easily slipped past Bolton goalie Ali Al Habsi.

Podolski, who started in place of Toni, added his second goal after halftime off an assist from Ribery.

Bayern was in control after taking the lead, but after Podolski (57th), Ribery (60) and Schweinsteiger (73) were taken out, Bolton was able to find the tying goal.

Kevin Nolan, who scored a late equalizer against West Ham in the Premiership on Sunday, set up Davies' goal with a nice pass in the box. Davies struck the ball low past Bayern goalie Oliver Kahn.

Bayern visits Braga when UEFA Cup play continues on Nov. 29. Bolton (0-0-2) hosts Aris Thessaloniki on Nov. 29.

Also in Group F, Thanassis Papazoglou scored two of Aris Thessaloniki's three goals in the final 14 minutes of a 3-0 win over Red Star Belgrade.

In Group A, Mikel Arteta and Victor Anichebe scored in the final 10 minutes as Everton beat Nurnberg 2-0, and Konstatin Zurianov and Fatih Tekke scored in the final 20 minutes as Zenit St. Petersburg rallied for a 3-2 victory over Larissa.

In Group B, Dame Ndoye scored in the 15th minute and Panathinaikos held on for a 1-0 win over FC Copenhagen after Hjalte Bo Norregaard missed a penalty kick in the 64th minute, and Lokomotiv Moscow's Branislav Ivanovic scored in the 45th minute to equalize Alexander Diamond's goal in the 27th for Aberdeen in a 1-1 draw.

In Group C, Kahveci Nihat and Gonzalez Santi Cazorla scored as Villarreal defeated Mlada Boleslav 2-1, and Martin Jorgensen had two goals as Fiorentina rolled to a 6-1 win over Elfsborg.

In Group D, Basle held onto the top spot with a 0-0 draw at Dinamo Zagreb, and Bruno Cheyrou scored on a penalty kick in the 88th minute as Rennes tied Brann, 1-1.

In Group E, Roman Pavluchenko and Santos Batista Mozart scored on penalty kicks and Spartak Moscow held on for a 2-1 win over Bayer Leverkusen, and Karol Kisel scored the second of his two goals in the 88th minute to lift Sparta Prague to a 3-2 win over Toulouse.

In Group G, Robbie Keane and Dimitar Berbatov scored in the first half and Tottenham had no trouble holding on for a 2-0 win after Hapoel Tel Aviv had a man sent off early in the second half, and Mattias Lindstrom scored in the 86th minute as AaB tied Anderlecht, 1-1.

In Group H, Henrik Larsson, Razak Omotoyossi and Christoffer Andersson scored as Helsinborg overcame two goals by Galatasaray's Shabani Nonda for a 3-2 win, and Silva Wendell converted a penalty in the 88th as Bordeaux rallied for a 2-1 win over Austria Vienna.
