UEFA Cup digest: City draw 0-0, crowd trouble in Zagreb

* Former winners Galatasaray qualify for last 32

* Sevilla win marred by injury to Partizan player

Galatasaray, the 2000 winners, Standard Liege, Twente Enschede and Ukraine's Metalist Kharkiv also reached the last 32, joining favourites AC Milan, CSKA Moscow, Manchester City and St Etienne who had already qualified.

The Partizan midfielder was carried off the pitch unconscious after colliding with an opponent early in the game. Belgrade's B92 website (www.b92.net) said Moreira later regained consciousness in hospital.

"We hope it's not a serious injury but we will know more after diagnosis from the doctors," said Partizan vice-president Zoran Mirkovic.

Udinese's clash with Dinamo at the Friuli stadium was halted, and the players taken to the dressing rooms, when the flares were thrown on the pitch.

"I don't have words (to explain it) ... at the time we were doing well," Dinamo coach Marijan Vlak told reporters.

Spartak appeared on course for the last 32 after Sergey Kovalchuk's early strike but the Dutch side stunned the hosts with late goals from Jhonny van Beukering and Lasse Schoene.
