Intense domestic action 3/5/11.

Beginning in Scotland, Celtic extended their lead above Rangers to 8 points as they dealt with Hamilton, winning 2-0 with a brace of strikes from Kris Commons winning them the game. Kilmarnock defeated Hearts by the same score line, with David Silva and Alexei Junior Eremenko scoring the respective goals before the latter was sent off in the 72nd minute with a straight red. Inverness' 3-0 victory over Motherwell was the biggest score line of the day though, as Shane Sutherland, Richie Foran, and Alexander MacDonald put one away each on their way to victory. Despite a testy 1-0 lead at the half, Inverness surged forward in the second half and won the match quite comfortably. Over in Germany, Eintracht Frankfurt and Kaiserslautern finished with a goalless draw while Hannover's 3-1 victory over Bayern was the biggest news. Hannover were ahead 2-0 through Mohammed Abdellaoue and Konstantin Rausch before Arjen Robben finally struck Bayern's first and only goal in the 55th. Hannover had a 1-0 lead at the half. Sergio Pinto's 62nd minute strike made it 3-1 and left Bayern in shambles. Bayer Leverkusen destroyed Wolfsburg 3-0 as Lars Bender, Renato Augusto, and Stefan Kiessling each combined to make it 3-0 before the half. The torrent didn't continue though as no goals came for either side in the second half despite several chances. Monchengladbach defeated Hoffenheim 2-0 while Nurnberg and Christian Eigler dismantled St. Pauli 5-0! Four of the five came from Eigler with Philipp Wollscheid opening the scoring in the 3rd minute. Meanwhile, Schalke's 1-0 loss to Stuttgart was only resolved from the penalty spot when Zdravko Kuzmanovic slotted home in the 15th following the sending off of Schalke's Benedikt Howedes. Down in the Portuguese side of Iberia, Porto did what they needed to see off the challenge from the likes of Vitoria with a 2-0 win. Falcao opened the scoring in the 68th before Cristian Rodriguez made it 2-0 in the 90th minute. In ending, how about Barcelona v.s. Zaragoza in Spain? Seydou Keita's 43rd minute strike was all that separated the sides in the end as things ended 1-0 with a couple of yellows and a mistake by Puyol.
