WRAPUP 2-Soccer-Late goals foil Liverpool, revive Inter

By Brian Homewood

BERNE, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Troubled Liverpool conceded a last-gasp goal in a 1-1 draw at Olympique Lyon on Wednesday, leaving them in danger of an early Champions League exit, while Inter Milan were on the right end of some late drama.

The Italian champions scored twice in the last five minutes to beat Dynamo Kiev 2-1 away and claim their first win in nine European matches.

Lyon's point was enough to send them into the last 16 along with Sevilla, who were held 1-1 at home by VfB Stuttgart, as the duo joined Manchester United, Chelsea, Girondins Bordeaux and Porto in the knockout stages.

European champions Barcelona, beaten 2-1 at home by Rubin Kazan two weeks ago, were held to a goalless draw away to the Russians in freezing conditions, leaving them in an uncomfortable position in their group.

Arsenal, inspired by two goals from Cesc Fabregas, thrashed AZ Alkmaar 4-1 and virtually ensured their place after becoming the only Premiership side to manage a win this week.

TROUBLED TIMES

Five-times champions Liverpool travelled to Lyon having lost six of their last seven games in all competitions, including a 2-1 loss to Lyon at Anfield, and were again missing injured captain Steven Gerrard.
