The Danes resume their march at the top of the group by beating Genk. First goal with the Greeks of Thessaloniki for the Italian defender
Those who were at the top confirmed themselves at the top. Those who were at the bottom were unable to move the rankings. The first part of the Europa League evening can be summarized like this, where Midtjylland narrowly defeated Genk thanks to Cho’s goal, maintaining the top of the group. Behind the Danes, Real Betis keeps pace and fails to score in Zagreb against Dinamo, tamed with a 1-3 which is clearer than the result itself suggests. Ludogorets would also have remained in their wake, if they hadn’t been mocked at the end by Paok in the most entertaining match of this round: comebacks and counter-comebacks, with our Vogliacco scoring for the Greeks, who snatched the equalizer in the 90th minute with Mythou’s goal and were also close to having the final say.
LILAC KO
—
The real surprise of the evening is Lille’s defeat at Young Boys, in a very intense match. The French were left with ten men shortly after the half hour mark due to the red card shown to Bouaddi for a foul on a clear scoring opportunity, but the Swiss missed the penalty kick with Bedia. In the end it was Males who settled the match in the 61st minute and in the final Young Boys also lost a man due to a red card (Zoukrou). Nice did not deny themselves and remained last, also losing the sixth against Braga, driven by Pau Victor. Nottingham Forest took an unexpected three points away from Utrecht thanks to substitute Jesus, who scored the winning goal on the first ball. Ferencvaros overturns Rangers with the usual Varga, while Stuttgart defeats Maccabi Tel-Aviv without any difficulty (4-1). However, among the Germans El Khannouss has been booked: he has been warned and will miss Roma.
