Baku/16.08.19/ Turan: On Thursday the Neftchi football club lost the Israeli Bnei Yehuda with a score 1-2, and left the fight in the Europa League. A week ago, Neftchi in the third qualifying round of the Europa League played in Baku with the Israeli Bnei Yehuda in a draw 2: 2. The return match of the third qualifying round of the Europa League on August 15 in the Israeli city of Petah Tikva began with attacks by Neftchi.
However, Bnei Yehuda, having restrained the advance of the Baku people, gradually turned the game into the desired direction. In the 15th minute, Neftchi missed the counterattack of the hosts, and Dor Yang opened an account. At the 66th minute, Tambi Sagas was in the center of the penalty area for guests unattended and doubled the score. Neftchi only managed to score a prestige goal. In the third added minute of the match, Emin Mahmudov scored a penalty. Thus, losing 3-4 in the sum of two meetings, Neftchi left the Europa League. In European competitions, only one Azerbaijani team continues to fight - FC Karabakh (Agdam). After losing the 3rd round of the Champions League qualification from the Cypriot APOEL, "Karabakh" got a chance to break into the Europa League group stage.
In the play-off round of the Europa League, the rival of FC Karabakh will be the winner of the Linfield (Northern Ireland) - Sutjeska (Montenegro) pair. The first match of these teams, held in Montenegro, ended with the victory of the Irish with a score of 2: 1. Europa League playoffs are scheduled for August 22 and 29. - 06D-
