Valencia clinched victory over Champions League opponents Ghent thanks to two own goals.

Own goals from the Lasse Nielsen and Stefan Mitrovic gifted the La Liga side a 2-1 victory over Belgian champions Ghent on Tuesday.

Sofiane Feghouli was again decisive at a rainy Mestalla, vying with Nielsen to be first to a Joao Cancelo centre and forcing the Dane to put the ball into his own net in the 15th minute.

The visitors levelled five minutes before the break when Thomas Foket chested the ball down in the penalty area and smashed a superb angled shot high past Jaume Domenech in the home goal.

Then a Jose Gaya cross-shot ricocheted into the net off the unfortunate Mitrovic 18 minutes from time.
