A round-up of the rest of Tuesday's Champions League results.

After wins for Barcelona and Zenit and draws for Arsenal, Chelsea and AC Milan, here's a round-up of the three other Champions League games on Tuesday.

In Group E Valencia overcame Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 at the Estadio Mestalla to keep their hopes of qualification for the knockout stage alive.

Jonas equalled the quickest ever Champions League goal by putting the hosts ahead after 11 seconds but Leverkusen rallied and were level on the half-hour mark through Stefan Kießling.

Second-half goals from Roberto Soldado and Adil Rami won the game for Valencia who are now third in the group, one point behind Leverkusen and three behind Chelsea.

In Arsenal's group, Borussia Dortmund picked up their first win of the competition by edging out Olympiacos in Germany.

Kevin Großkreutz scored the only goal of the game after seven minutes with a 25-yard strike to keep Die Schwarzgelben's hopes of qualifying for the knockout stage intact.

The Gunners top group F on eight points, one clear of Marseille while Dortmund are a further three adrift.

The surprise result of the night came in group G where APOEL Nicosia beat last year's Europa League winners Porto in Cyprus to lead the group.

Ailton put the hosts ahead from the spot just before half-time after he was fouled by Eliaquim Mangala.

Brazilian striker Hulk appeared to have saved a point for Porto with a penalty in the 88th minute before Gustavo Manduca restored APOEL's lead instantly.

The Cypriot outfit are now at the least guaranteed a Europa League place as they sit six clear of bottom side Shakhtar Donetsk.
