FC Twente went on to win, 6-5, on penalty kicks after their game ended in a 1-1 tie.

In other action, Jonathon Spector started for West Ham United, which fell at Birmingham City, 3-1, in overtime of the English League Cup semifinals and was knocked out, 4-3, on aggregate.

Clint Dempsey played the entire game for Fulham in its 1-0 loss at Liverpool in the English Premier League, while Maurice Edu was a second-half sub for Rangers in its 2-0 win at Hibernian in the Scottish Premier League.
