Zalgiris unexpected won against Malmo 0:2 and on aggregate 3:0 they go to next round. It means that club from my country will play in group stage of UEFA tournament (Conference League at least) for the first time. Finally! Malmo had more posession, but they weren't really dangerous.
Fenerbahche - Dynamo Kyiv was great game and I happy that Dynamo goes to next round. 1st half was completely dominated by Fener and it's looked like matter of time when they will score. But 2nd half was more equal and on extra time Dynamo managed to score decisive goal.
Maccabi Haifa very unexpected humiliated Olympiacos 0:4 away. I didn't knew that VAR works at such stage. Oly scored goal, made score 1:1 what looked like big facor, but after VAR it was cancelled.
Bodo/Glimt 8:0 Linfield. These stats tells about game more than thousand words:
Up until recently, i thought Gibraltar's national stadium had the worst pitch, but after seeing the highlights from the first leg, Zalgiris has surpassed it with possibly the crappiest artificial turf i've ever seen. It's dangerous to walk on that thing, let alone play football, and it's always at a disadvantage to the visiting team.
Itdoesn't just looks terrible on screen, it's terrible pitch actually. Maybe such pitch can be considered as advantage for home team, but local players also hate to play on it. BTW, this stadium had good quality artificial turf: but few years ago stadium owners changed it into much worse
