Ahmed Hassan and his side Anderlecht were held to a 1-1 draw at home by French side Lille in their UEFA Champions League clash.

Defender Nicolas Pareja put the Belgium champions ahead in the 41st minute but Nicolas Fauvergue leveled in the 80th minute.

Anderlecht and Lille are in second and third spots of Group H with AC Milan leading the group after beating AEK Athens 3-0 at the San Siro.

The Egypt captain was the main danger of threat throughout the game, touching almost every ball and receiving a harsh kick in the leg late in the second period.

Pareja put the hosts ahead when he bowed to connect with Mbark Boussoufa's corner-kick and sent a rising header into the roof of the net for the opener.

Lille laid a siege to Anderlecht's area after the break and managed to equalize ten minutes from time with a debatable goal.

Peter Odemwingie raced down the left and crossed on the floor for Fauvergue who was apparently in an offside position.

The referee didn't blow his whistle and Fauvergue sidefooted the ball into the far corner of the net.

In Italy, Kaka scored a goal and dished out an assist as Milan romped to a comfortable 3-0 victory over AEK Athens.

Filippo Inzaghi opened the score line in the 17th minute when he steered an ice-cool header into the top corner of the net after an inch-perfect cross from captain Paolo Maldini.

Yoann Gourcuff widened the gap four minutes from the break as he connected with Kaka's cross and powered an unstoppable header past the keeper.

In the 76th minute, Inzaghi was brought down inside the area and Kaka fired the resulted spot-kick home.
