NYON, Switzerland - Five-time European champion Liverpool, Monaco, Roma and four other clubs face further UEFA probes for overspending on player transfers and wages.UEFAs club financial control panel also opened cases against six more clubs, the European football body said Friday.The clubs had disclosed a break-even deficit on the basis of their financial reporting periods ending in 2012 and 2013, UEFA said.The clubs must provide updated accounts through February as part of monitoring of all Champions League and Europa League entrants to comply with Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules.Four of the initial seven clubs investigated — Liverpool, Monaco, Roma and Sporting Lisbon — are in contention to qualify for the Champions League knockout stage next week.The other three — three-time European champion Inter Milan, Besiktas, and Krasnodar — are playing in the second-tier Europa League.All seven have attended club hearings with the financial monitoring panel, UEFA said.The six new cases of clubs who must show they are approaching break-even on football trading are Europa League clubs Sparta Prague, Hull, Lyon, Panathinaikos, Ruch Chorzow and Wolfsburg.UEFA introduced the FFP project in 2011 to curb overspending on player transfers and wages.Though UEFAs most severe sanction is exclusion from the Champions League, clubs typically face fines and limits on player registration for first offences.UEFA currently allows wealthy club owners to cover a maximum of 45 million euros ($55 million) of losses on their football-related business since 2011 with a one-off equity payment.The FFP rules encourage clubs to spend freely on stadiums, infrastructure projects and youth training without those costs counting in the break-even assessment.UEFA claims the rules championed by its President Michel Platini are having the intended effect.Aggregate losses reported by Europes top-tier clubs in the 2013 financial year have gone down to 800 million euros ($984 million) from a record-reported deficit of 1.7 billion euros ($2.1 billion) in 2011, UEFA said in a statement Friday.Still, the project is criticized for protecting traditionally elite clubs — with greater global fan and sponsor bases — from challenges by emerging clubs with wealthy new owners.In the first round of FFP sanctions in May, the two main victims were Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, the champions of England and France.Both clubs have recently soared in status, fuelled by big spending by owners from the ruling families of Abu Dhabi and Qatar, respectively.

PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil -- Argentina beat Nigeria 3-2 in their last World Cup group match on Wednesday, with Lionel Messi and Ahmed Musa scoring two goals each before Marcos Rojo kneed in the winner. Argentina won Group F while Nigeria also advanced despite the loss, becoming the first African team in the round of 16 in Brazil. Messi had his best match of the World Cup so far, scoring twice in the first half to boost his tournament total to four goals, and repeatedly cutting up Nigerias defence with dazzling runs and clever passes. "We played against a team that wanted to play," Messi said. "I think we saw a good Argentina. We need to continue on this path." The Argentina captain needed less than three minutes to finish Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeamas clean sheet in Brazil, slamming in the rebound after Angel Di Marias shot bounced off the post. Nigeria replied within a minute as Musa cut in from the left and beat Sergio Romero with a curling shot toward the far post. Nearing halftime Messi tested Enyeama with a 25-meter free kick that the goalkeeper struggled to push to a corner. Having found his aim, Messi was ice cold when Nigeria gave up another free kick just moments later from a slightly shorter distance. This time Enyeama was stunned as the ball hooked over the wall and slipped in just inside the post. "Messi is one of heck of a player, hes blessed. You cant take it away from him," Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi said. "Messi is from Jupiter, he is different." The second half started at the same furious pace as the first, with two goals within the first five minutes. First Musa took advantage of confusion in the Argentine defence to score his second. Then Rojo made it 3-2 as he got his right knee on a corner kick three minutes later. Both teams continued to chase more goals but the intensity dropped off someewhat as Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella substituted Messi after the hour-mark.dddddddddddd The Barcelona wizard enjoyed the space he was given by Nigeria, which surged forward rather than locking down in defence like Bosnia-Herzegovina and Iran did against Argentina. He has scored in each of the teams three matches. Finding more space to attack, Argentina created more chances than in its previous games, but its defence caved in on both of Musas goals. Another concern for Argentina: Striker Sergio Aguero was injured in the first half, and replaced by Ezequiel Lavezzi. "I think we had a lot of chances, and could have scored a few more goals," Sabella said. Tens of thousands of Argentine fans had travelled to Porto Alegre for the match, taunting Brazilian spectators by singing "Maradona is greater than Pele" at the 44,000-capacity Beira-Rio Stadium. The Brazilians booed and held up five fingers to remind the Argentines of how many World Cups theyve won. Argentina has two. Meanwhile, tragedy struck in Nigeria before the match, as an explosion rocked a shopping mall in the capital, Abuja, and police said at least 21 people were killed. The blast came as Nigerians were preparing to watch the World Cup match. Many shops at the mall have TV screens but it was unclear if the explosion was timed to coincide with the match, which started an hour later. ------ Nigeria: Vincent Enyeama; Efe Ambrose, Kenneth Omeruo, Joseph Yobo, Juwon Oshaniwa; Ahmed Musa, Ogenyi Onazi, John Obi Mikel, Michael Babatunde (Okechukwu Uchebo, 66); Peter Odemwingie (Uche Nwofor, 80), Emmanuel Emenike.
