LONDON (AP) - Players from Nancy and Feyenoord were led from the field struggling from the effects of tear gas as violence returned to the UEFA Cup on Thursday.
On the night Espanyol, Panathinaikos and Nancy celebrated reaching the knockout round, trouble flared in Nancy and tear gas, reportedly fired by police at visiting Feyenoord fans, forced players off the field 10 minutes from the end with the home team leading 3-0 and seemingly also certain to qualify.
The game eventually resumed in a virtually empty stadium, and Nancy captured the victory it needed.
Espanyol, which won 2-0 at four-time European champion Ajax in Group F, and Panathinaikos, which drew 0-0 at home to Mlada Boleslav in Group G, also joined nine other teams who had already made it - defending champion Sevilla, AZ Alkmaar, Rangers, Maccabi Haifa, Tottenham, Dinamo Bucharest, Parma, Blackburn and Newcastle - with another round of games to come.
Of the eight groups, 24 teams go into the knockout round and they will be joined in the Dec. 15 draw by eight third-place finishers in the Champions League.
It was another night when fan violence marred UEFA Cup soccer in France.
A week after a policeman shot dead a fan after the Paris Saint-Germain-Hapoel Tel Aviv game, supporters of Feyenoord ran through the streets of Nancy breaking windows. There was more trouble inside the stadium and, when tear gas began to flow across the field, the referee led the players off the field.
Sebastien Puygrenier gave Nancy a 22nd-minute lead and an own goal by Luiz Andre Bahia three minutes before halftime made it 2-0.
Beaten 4-1 at NEC on Sunday, it got worse for Feyenoord when Royston Drenthe was sent off for a second yellow card with 30 minutes still to go, and that led to another flareup between the visiting fans and police.
