Tonight’s results in the Champions League qualifiers, where Lille, Midland, Ludogorets and Salzburg took the first step towards the playoffs. Wide open accounts for Dynamo Kyiv and Rangers, who remained at 1-1.
The French managed to beat Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce 2-1 at home and take the lead to reach the next stage. Thiago Santos opened the scoring in the 12th minute for the home side and the Turks equalized in the 80th minute with a free-kick from Kahvetsi. Thus, the “Special One” team proved capable of reaching a positive result. However, the last word belonged to Zegrova, who turned the tide in favor of Lille with a goal in the 90+1′.
Ludogorets left Qarabag home with a “double” with goals from Almeida (56′) and Vidal (87′), while Zuninho equalized in between. In the end, he got a little more stressed, as Vidal was sent off with a second yellow card.
It’s all wide open in Dynamo Kyiv’s clash with Rangers, before which there was a disturbance due to the fact that the two VAR referees were found to be drunk. Yarmolenko opened the scoring in the 38th minute and the Scots were held up by Deser’s goal in stoppage time. Midland took a clear lead with a 2-0 win over Ferencvaros. Small step for Salzburg, who prevailed 2-1 against Twente, which was reduced to 90+1′.
