UCL playoffs: Lille take control against Slavia Prague

Jonathan David and Edon Zhegrova goals earned Lille a 2-0 advantage over Slavia Prague in the first leg of their Champions League play-off tie on Tuesday.

Canada international David stroked home the opener on 52 minutes before a touch of magic from Zhegrova saw the Kosovo winger double the lead for the hosts.

Former Manchester United midfielder Angel Gomes watched from the stands after being hospitalised at the weekend following a sickening collision in Lille's opening Ligue 1 win over Reims that knocked him unconscious.

Dinamo Zagreb are well positioned to reach the revised 36-team league phase of the competition after a 3-0 home win over Qarabag of Azerbaijan. Substitute Sandro Kulenovic scored a late brace after Marko Pjaca had put Dinamo ahead. 

Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt hold a 2-1 lead over Red Star Belgrade going into next week's return fixture. Odin Bjortuft and Isak Dybvik Maatta struck for the home side before Ognjen Mimovic pulled one back for Red Star.

Four more ties are scheduled for Wednesday, with Dynamo Kyiv up against Salzburg and Swiss champions Young Boys playing Galatasaray. Denmark's Midtjylland take on Slovan Bratislava, while Swedish outfit Malmo meet Sparta Prague.
