Only Sporting cleaned up from tonight: With matches and… open accounts in view of a rematch, the first matches of the Playoffs!

Most of the 19:45 matches left open accounts for the Playoffs of Europa League.

First, in the Netherlands, where we had the… repeat of the 2022 Europa Conference League final, between Feyenoord and Roma. The hosts were the ones who opened the scoring, with Paisao to set fire to “De Cap” at 45’+1′ with a header. From about the same spot, in the same way (header), Lukaku leveled the game at 67′with the final 1-1 to theoretically give a small advantage to the Romans for mercy and rematch at home.

At the same time, Shakhtar welcomed in Hamburg Marseille, with the hosts typically replying in the caps each time AEK’s Europa League Group 2 rivals took the lead. Marseille opened the scoring in the 64th minute with Aubameyang, with Matvienko immediately equalizing (68th minute). Let’s go to the final, where it became… humiliating, with Ediage scoring for the visitors in the 90′ ​​and Ekinaldos equalizing in the 90’+3′ for the final 2-2.

The difference between the Czechs and Shakhtar was that they responded only twice when their opponent took the lead (19′ Demirbai, 60′ self-directed Kreci), specifically with Preciado (47′) and Kuca (65′). Icardi scored the winning goal at 90’+1′, with the two teams meanwhile both playing with ten players due to a red card (62′ Nelson – 80′ Reins).

Only the Sporting it was she who took a clear qualification lead ahead of the second leg, with the Lisbon team prevailing 3-1 at its headquarters Young Boys. Ameda’s own goal (31′) and Jokeres’ penalty (41′) gave them a two-goal lead, with Ugrinic replying immediately (42′). In the end, Inasio was the one who shaped the final score in the 48th minute.
