UEFA Europa League Wrap: Liverpool and Spurs out

Trailing 1-0 from the first leg, Besiktas levelled the tie when Tolgay Arslan struck a fine effort into the top left-hand corner from just outside the box.

Besiktas looked the most likely to win the tie in extra time, but Liverpool held on for penalties only for defender Dejan Lovren to send the 10th kick high and wide.

There were ugly scenes in two matches, where play was stopped at Feyenoord's clash with Roma and Dynamo Kiev's meeting with Guingamp.

Fredy Guarin's stunning effort sealed a 1-0 win for Inter and progression after a 3-3 draw with Celtic in the first leg, while Fiorentina defeated Tottenham 2-0 to advance 3-1 overall.

Everton's 3-1 win over Young Boys saw them comfortably through 7-2 overall, while Napoli defeated Trabzonspor 1-0 to make it 5-0 over the two legs.

Italian success continued as Torino edged a tight tie with Athletic Bilbao 5-4 on aggregate, while Club Brugge's 3-0 win over AaB saw them advance 6-1 and Wolfsburg's goalless draw at Sporting Lisbon saw them through 2-0.

Elsewhere, Dnipro drew 2-2 with Olympiacos to advance 4-2, Dinamo Moscow overcame Anderlecht 3-1 after a goalless first leg and Villarreal's 3-1 win in Salzburg sealed a 5-2 aggregate success.
