Who would have thought that after Feyen-oord’s one-way street football in the first half? SK Sturm defied the traditional Dutch club (with the strong Gernot Trauner) and won 1-0 through a dream goal by Otar Kiteishvili in the 93rd minute and thus avenged the 0-6 away debacle. Graz secured a brilliant starting position for the last group game of the Europa League on Thursday (7 p.m., ServusTV) in Denmark.
If Sturm manage to draw against FC Midtjylland, the journey continues in the knockout phase. “I’m speechless, it’s so emotional. Thank you for the incredible atmosphere,” said Kiteishvili, who took the ball out of the air technically clean and volleyed it into the right corner. Then there was no stopping the 14,500 fans. “Now anything is possible. We can be first, but we can also be last.” This is also because Lazio won 2-1 against Midtjylland.
Austria Wien has to tick off promotion in the Europa Conference League. The 1:1 (0:0) against Lech Poznan was not enough. Can Keles equalized Mikael Ishak’s 0-1 lead in the 70th minute (48′).
