LONDON (AP):

DEIVID DE Souza scored a late goal yesterday to give Fenerbahce a 2-1 upset over Chelsea, and Liverpool got a crucial away goal in their 1-1 draw at Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Deivid gave Chelsea the lead with an own-goal in the 13th minute, but he then scored with a dramatic shot from distance in the 81st to give the Turkish team a win in its first appearance in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Five-time champions Liverpool came back with a 26th-minute goal from Dirk Kuyt to get them a draw at English rivals Arsenal after Emmanuel Adebayor put the hosts ahead three minutes earlier.

The teams will play again in the second leg on Tuesday, with the winners facing each other later this month in the semi-finals.

Chelsea led at Sukru Saracoglu stadium when Deivid deflected a cross from Florent Malouda into his own net. But Kazim Kazim equalised in the 65th by beating the offside trap and beating Chelsea goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini.

"We are strong enough at home," Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack said. "Everything is in our hands."

Deflected cross

Kuyt scored for Liverpool by sliding inside the six-yard box and deflecting a cross from captain Steve Gerard, three minutes after Adebayor had given the hosts the lead at the Emirates Stadium with a header off a cross from Cesc Fabregas.

Emmanuel Eboue nearly scored another for Arsenal but Martin Skrtel cleared it off the line with Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina beaten.

On Tuesday, Manchester United and FC Barcelona won away from home. United beat AS Roma 2-0 and Barcelona defeated Schalke 1-0.

Their second legs are scheduled for next Wednesday.
