Lyon beat Crystal Palace 3-2 as Sunderland win late in Portugal and Cisse, 19, hits Milan hat-trick

Pierre Sage had an unhappy return to Lyon on Thursday, 15 October. His former club beat Crystal Palace 3-2 on Europa League matchday two. Elsewhere, Sunderland scored in stoppage time to win in Portugal, Bournemouth marked their first European home match with a 3-0 win, and 19-year-old Alphadjo Cisse scored a hat-trick for AC Milan. The matches finished in the early hours of Friday, Malaysia time.

Lyon edge Palace in five-goal thriller

Paulo Fonseca's Lyon took control in the first half. Corentin Tolisso scored in the opening 10 minutes, and Ernest Nuamah added a second in first-half stoppage time. Yeremy Pino pulled one back for Palace early in the second half. Pavel Sulc restored Lyon's two-goal lead, and Daichi Kamada's late goal for Palace came too late to change the result.

Lyon have won both of their league-phase games. For Palace it was a fourth defeat of the season in all competitions, and Sage's first return to the club he used to coach ended in a loss.

Sunderland leave it late at Torreense

Regis Le Bris's Sunderland played the Portuguese Cup holders at Leiria's municipal stadium, and Volnei Feltes gave Torreense the lead with a long-range goal in the 36th minute. The changes made it work for Sunderland. Granit Xhaka and Enzo Le Fee came off the bench just before the hour, and shortly afterwards Jules Ahoka headed in Nordi Mukiele's cross to equalise. In stoppage time Noah Sadiki half-volleyed in Xhaka's lay-off to win it 2-1. Sunderland also had a late penalty claim turned down after a VAR check.

Bournemouth make history at home

Bournemouth had never played a European match at the Vitality Stadium before, and they won it 3-0 against Sturm Graz. Evanilson headed in just before half-time, substitute Rayan scored from a corner, and Alvaro Rodriguez converted a late penalty. Bournemouth won 2-1 at Real Sociedad on matchday one, so they have the maximum six points.

Cisse's record night for Milan

In Austria, Ruben Amorim's Milan won 4-0 at Red Bull Salzburg. Alphadjo Cisse, aged 19 years and 358 days, scored in the 15th minute, again just after the half-hour mark, and once more soon after half-time. Reports say he is the youngest Italian to score a hat-trick in a major European club competition. Goncalo Ramos added a fourth in the 72nd minute. Filippo Terracciano was sent off late on, but it made no difference to the result. Milan had lost their opening game to Benfica, so this was their first league-phase win.

Benfica, Leverkusen and the rest

Benfica beat Martin O'Neill's Celtic 4-1 in Lisbon. Jhon Duran scored twice, one of them a Panenka penalty, and Alexander Bah and Vangelis Pavlidis also scored. Camilo Duran headed Celtic's goal. Bayer Leverkusen won 4-0 at Lech Poznan, with Patrik Schick scoring two penalties, to make it two wins from two. Randal Kolo Muani scored a stoppage-time winner as Juventus won 2-1 at Celta Vigo, and Santiago Hezze's goal gave Olympiacos a 1-0 win at Marseille.
