The big game in Belgium was the eight-goal thriller in the Antwerp derby between Royal Antwerp and Germinal Beerschot, with six of the goals scored by Africans.
Within half an hour Beerschot were leading 3-0 with goals from Sierra Leone's Paul Kpaka and his new partner from Ghana, Kwame Quansah who scored twice.
But amazingly, Royal came back to win 5-3, with Burkinabe Omar Mussa getting two goals and Guinean Ibrahima Yattara one in a superb fight back.
Baffour Gyan opened the scoring for Slovan Liberec in their 2-0 win over Tescoma Zlin.
In the 5-0 win for FC Midtjyl over K?ge, 21-year-old Razak Pimpong scored their fouth goal in the 64 minute.

SV Werder Bremen 2-0 FC Bayern M?nchen

Wolfsburg: C. Reitmaier - T. Rytter (62. D. Munteanu), M. Franz, S. Schnoor, T. Rau - M. Karhan, C. Akonnor (62. H. Sarpei) - S. Effenberg - R. Ponte, D. Klimowicz (46. M. Petrov), T. Maric

Kofi Amponsah's PAOK took the important 3 points away from home after defeating Akratitos 3-1 at Ano Liosia and are within striking distance of top spot. Kofi played all 90 minutes.
Olympiakos continues to fail to impress in both Europe and Greece as after one month of soccer last season's Greek champion has failed to record a win. In front of their home crowd of about 8,000 fans and new coach Srecko Katanec, who left the game eight minutes from time, Olympiakos managed to draw Proodeftiki 0-0. Aleksandris and Ofori-Quaye teamed together up front - a formation that hasn't been used at Olympiakos for quite some time. Each managed to bother Proodeftiki only once as Aleksandris had a header in the 16th that was blocked by Kois while Ofori-Quaye failed to convert in the 26th.
Torino are staring in the face of relegation after bowing down to Brescia in the Stadio delle Alpi. Roma transfer-target Stephen Appiah four minutes from time piled on Torino's misery. The Ghana midfielder tapped in a shot released by Luca Bucci to make it 2-0. Appiah remains the only African scorer in the top flight with his second of the season for Brescia.
