<p>Inter Milan were held to a 2-2 home draw by Dynamo Kiev while Fiorentina won 4-3 at Debrecen, where six goals came in the first 37 minutes. <br /><br />Sevilla made it three wins in a row with a 3-1 success at VfB Stuttgart but Arsenal were denied their third successive win by a last-minute equaliser for AZ Alkmaar in a 1-1 draw. <br />Barcelona fell behind after two minutes at the Nou Camp when Aleksandr Ryazantsev scored from long range. <br /><br />Zlatan Ibrahimovic equalised in the 48th minute but Gokdeniz Karadeniz restored the visitors' lead 20 minutes from time and, despite a series of late attacks, Barca could not prevent their first defeat in the competition in 10 games. <br /><br />Inter's dire Champions League run continued as they failed to win for the eighth game in a row and were somewhat lucky to escape with a point, having twice come from behind. <br />Taras Mikhalik (5th) and a Lucio own goal (35) twice had Dynamo ahead with Dejan Stankovic and Walter Samuel replying. <br /><br />The results leave Group F, which had looked a two-horse race at the start, too close to call with Barcelona, Kiev and Rubin all on four points and Inter on three after three draws. <br /><br />An injury-time goal by Cesar Delgado put Lyon in control of Group E and left Liverpool's hopes hanging by a thread. Five-time European champions Liverpool, already struggling without injured striker Fernando Torres, lost injured captain Steven Gerrard after 24 minutes but went ahead through Yossi Benayoun late in the first half. <br /><br />Lyon substitute Maxime Gonalons headed in a deserved equaliser after 72 minutes before Argentine forward Delgado finished off a sharp breakaway to hand Liverpool a fourth successive defeat in all competitions and leave them third on just three points. <br />Lyon in command<br /><br />Lyon are well placed with a maximum nine points ahead of second-placed Fiorentina on six after their goalfest at Hungary's Debrecen, who are pointless after three defeats. <br />Sevilla are also on nine points after two goals from defender Sebastien Squillaci and one for Jesus Navas gave them an impressive Group G success in Germany. <br /><br />Romanian champions Unirea Urziceni are the unlikely second-placed side on four points. They secured a first European win by embarrassing Rangers 4-1 in Glasgow -- helped by two own goals and a missed penalty from the generous hosts. <br /><br />Stuttgart have two points and Rangers, who were booed off at Ibrox, one. <br />Arsenal also looked on course for a third successive win until David Mendes da Silva grabbed a stoppage time equaliser to earn Alkmaar a point. <br /><br />Cesc Fabregas had put Arsenal ahead in the 36th minute but they paid the price for sitting on their lead in the second half. <br /><br />Arsenal remain top of Group H on seven points with Olympiakos second on six after they also scored in added time to beat Standard Liege 2-1. <br /><br />Liege led through Igor De Camargo but Kostas Mitroglou headed an equaliser and substitute Ieroklis Stoltidis struck the winner in the 93rd minute.<br /></p>
