The Portuguese team survived in Greece and even took the game in the last minutes
The Turks and Swiss won their respective commitments at home
Six tickets were distributed and there are only three unsealed left. Sporting Braga, Galatasaray and Young Boys will be present at this Thursday’s draw for the group stage of the next Champions League.
Abel Ruiz’s Braga held out in the Greek hell of Panathinaikos and made good the 2-1 with the one that came from the first leg in Portugal. In fact, Sporting managed to win the game on Greek soil with a solitary Bruma’s goal seven minutes from the end that provided the necessary calm to Artur Jorge’s team.
On the other hand, the Swiss Young Boys easily got through after beating Maccabi Haifa 3-0 at home. The goals from Itten and Seck put land in the middle before the break and the goal from Ugrinic in the first play after passing through the locker room was the final blow.
The last ticket to the group stage last night was taken by a Galatasaray who took the lead through Icardi from a penalty, who saw how the Norwegian Molde tied the game and had opportunities to do so also in the tie but that se all hope vanished with Angeliño’s goal on 93′.
Dest, for a place
PSV will play today from 9:00 p.m. against Rangers, one of the last three places for the next edition of the Champions League. The Eindhoven team tied at two in Glasgow after losing up to two times. The ex-azulgrana group Luuk de Jong and the loanee Sergiño Dest will have the support of their own.
Also Copenhagen, who won 0-1 in the first leg against Polish Rakow or AEK, who will try to come back from 1-0 against Belgian Royal Antwerp.
