Europa League updates from the 5.45pm GMT kick-offLive scores | Tables | Read Football Daily | Email Simon
Glenn Hoddle picks out Adam Hlozek as the Hoffenheim player to watch, partly because “he’s got a left foot and a right foot”. And probably also because he’s the club’s joint top-scorer this season, has looked like a star in the making for several years and is still only 22.
I know what you’re thinking: is the Morten Krogh who is refereeing this game related to the Morten Krogh who reached the quarter-finals in the epee at the 1972 Olympics and won five national fencing championships in his native Norway? And perhaps also to the Trine Krogh who competed in the pool at the same Olympics, in the 200m and 400m medley? And, by extension, to her uncle, the Lars Krogh who won 15 Norwegian championship titles in freestyle swimming as well as 14 in water polo before becoming president of the Norwegian Swimming Association?
