The European League is within the reach of the football players of Pilsen, who defeated the Scottish team Hearts 1:0. Mladá Boleslav only drew at home (2:2) with Hungarian Páksi in the Conference League. Coincidentally, both Czech representatives scored in the seventh minute of regulation.
The European League
Football players of the Romanian FCSB, after being eliminated in the Champions League qualification by Sparta Prague, drew 1:1 in the opening match of the 4th preliminary round of the Europa League in Linz. RFS Riga in line with midfielder Petr Mareš beat APOEL Nicosia 2:1. Replacements are scheduled for one week.
FCSB, formerly Steaua Bucharest, lost to Sparta at home last Tuesday in the 3rd preliminary round of the “millionaire” competition 2:3 and “relegated” down a level. Linz started the game better, Taoui put it in front, but Miculescu equalized for the visitors in the first half.
33-year-old Mareš played 83 minutes. Riga scored both goals in the opening act, APOEL reduced shortly after the change of sides. The Latvian team has never played in the top tier of the Europa League.
Conference League
In the opening match of the 4th preliminary round of the Conference League, Legia Warsaw football players defeated the Kosovo Drita team 2:0 at home. Tomáš Pekhart played the last twenty minutes for the home team.
From the 30th minute, the hosts played in ten minutes without Ghanaian midfielder Gomda, and after a change of sides, Slovenian striker Kramer took advantage of the numerical increase with an accurate header. Finally, he was replaced by Pekhart, who scored two goals in the previous four cup matches. This time he did not improve the balance, but another Spanish substitute Coal ensured that Legia had a two-goal lead in the second leg.
The New Saints are on the verge of becoming Wales’ first representative at the group stage of the European Cup. The club, who beat Viktoria Plzeň 4:2 at home three years ago and then eliminated on penalties, had a promising 3:0 victory over Panevežys from Lithuania today.
Omonia Nicosia were in the best position for the return leg as they crushed Zira from Azerbaijan 6-0. And the Cape Verdean Semedo did not change the penalty, so he set himself up for a hat trick. The Cypriot club also won their fifth game in the Conference League.
Baník Ostrava FC Copenhagen defeated Kilmarnock 2:0 at home. Thirteen minutes before the end, Dutch Dicks converted a penalty kick and Falk scored a second goal in the sixth minute of regulation. This was the first loss made by the Scottish club in the competition.
The two-time finalist of the Football Conference League Fiorentina played 3:3 at home with the Hungarian club Puskás Akadémia in the 4th preliminary round. Antonín Barák was only on the bench for the home team, while Patrizio Stronati and Jakub Plšek played the entire game for the visiting team.
Fiorentina’s Spanish goalkeeper, De Gea, does not like to remember his first time in his new position after his move from Manchester United. He hit the net twice in the first twelve minutes after Nagy’s penalty and Fino Soisal’s shot. Even before the break, Sottil reduced and Argentina’s Martínez Quarta and substitute Kean scored in the second half, but Poland’s Golla grabbed a draw for the visitors in the last minute.
Ukrainian Kryvbas played against Betis Sevilla in the same way as Pilsen in Košice and lost again, this time 0:2. The Argentinian Avila only needed thirteen minutes to score the first goal, the second one was scored by the Spanish star Rodri.
