BASEL, Switzerland - Basel beat Liverpool 1-0 on Wednesday to extend its exceptional record against English clubs in the Champions League.Veteran forward Marco Streller pounced on a loose ball in the goalmouth in the 52nd minute to earn the Swiss champions first Group B points after a 5-1 loss at Real Madrid.Basel is now unbeaten in seven matches against English opposition in the competitions group stage a€” a run started 12 years ago when it advanced ahead of Liverpool.It was a perfect evening, said Basel coach Paulo Sousa, hailing a win against an historic club like Liverpool.Liverpools best effort was Mario Balotellis swerving, 60th-minute free kick from 30 metres (yards) which was blocked awkwardly by goalkeeper Tomas Vaslik.I thought we were too soft all over the pitch, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard said, adding his team didnt deserve anything.Madrid leads the group after winning 2-1 at newcomer Ludogorets Razgrad. The Bulgarian champion also lost 2-1 at Liverpool two weeks ago.Liverpool owed that victory to a stoppage-time penalty, and the five-time champion never looked like winners in Basel.I thought we were second best at times tonight, Gerrard said. I think they are an OK team, but I wouldnt say we were blown off the park or that they were fantastic.Streller, the Basel captain, and new coach Sousa joined in a leaping embrace at the final whistle.The 33-year-old forward also scored the decisive goal in a 2-1 win at Chelsea last season, which the Swiss club followed up with a 1-0 victory at St. Jakob-Park. Basel started its recent run of upset victories against English visitors by eliminating Manchester United with a 2-1 win in a December 2011 group-stage match.On Wednesday, Streller was ideally placed to take advantage of the unlucky Mignolets second excellent save within a minute.After the Liverpool keeper dived low to his left to push away Ahmed Hamoudis shot, the resulting corner was deflected toward goal and he could only parry the ball to Streller.Basel goalkeeper Vaslik was more fortunate when he pushed out Balotellis free kick, as a follow-up shot by Lazar Markovic was blocked by defender Fabian Schaer.Gerrard had a free kick in the 85th but this time Vaslik caught the ball cleanly.An incident in the first half could put Basel in further trouble with UEFA while it is serving two years of probation for fan disorder last season.Referee Jonas Eriksson briefly stopped play in the 26th minute to carry what appeared to be a used firework from the pitch.UEFA could apply sanctions when Basel next plays at home, against Ludogorets on Nov. 4.

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey was sent off with 10 minutes left in the first leg match in Istanbul after being shown a second yellow card for tugging Oguzhan Ozyakups shirt. "For me its unbelievable to get the second yellow card when you see the kind of fouls they have made today. Its not serious," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said on Britains ITV television. The London club, which has played in every group stage since the 1998-99 season, still nearly grabbed a late winner when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlains shot was turned onto the post. The highest-scoring match of the night was in Denmark with Leverkusen holding the away goals advantage going into next Wednesdays home leg. The other matches saw Athletic Bilbao draw 1-1 at Napoli, Red Bull Salzburg beat Malmo 2-1 and Steaua Bucharest edge Ludogorets Razgrad 1-0. At the Ataturk Olympic Stadium, a familiar face nearly embarrassed Arsenal from the kickoff. Former Chelsea striker Demba Ba lobbed the ball from the halfway line and it was looping into the top corner until goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny pushed it onto the crossbar. With striker Olivier Giroud lacking cutting edge in front of goal and new signing Alexis Sanchez denied by Tolga Zengins save before halftime, Arsenal rarely looked like repeating its 3-0 victory across Istanbul against Fenerbahce in last years playoff round. Besiktas came closest in the second half when Olcay Sahan curled a shot wide after breaking into the box. Andd, after Ramseys red card, Besiktas coach Slaven Bilic also saw red in a heated conclusion on the touchline.dddddddddddd "Its one of the most physical games we have played in the Champions League," Wenger said. "We had the chance to win the game, but unfortunately we couldnt do it." Next week at the Emirates, although Ramsey will be suspended, Wenger is set to deploy German World Cup-winning trio Mesut Ozil, Per Mertesacker and Lukas Podolski again after their break. "They will be without Ramsey who for me is the top man in the team," Bilic said. "We are still alive and we go to the Emirates with even more confidence ... we have a plan we have a dream." In Copenhagen, Stefan Kiessling took just five minutes to put Leverkusen in front, but the hosts hit back with Mathias Jorgensen nodding in an equalizer from a corner and Daniel Amartey heading them in front in the 13th minute. Parity was restored in the 31st when Karim Bellarabi knocked the ball into the net and Son Heung-min secured Leverkusens valuable away win just before half time after meeting Hakan Calhanoglus throughball. In Austria, goals from Franz Schiemer and Jonatan Soriano looked to have given Salzburg a clear cushion going into the second leg until Emil Forsberg pulled one back for Malmo in the 90th minute. Iker Muniains away goal could also prove decisive for Bilbao even though Gonzalo Higuain ensured Napoli drew 1-1 at home. The only goal of the night in Romania took until the 88th minute to come, with Alexandru Chipciu, who had already missed a penalty, striking into the net this time for Steaua against Ludogorets of Bulgaria.
