Dream goals, exciters, breakdowns
The European Cup highlights in the video
Eintracht Frankfurt scored another last-minute goal, Bayer Leverkusen decided a top game with a top goal and Union Berlin made it into the final. But the European Cup evening produces a whole range of other highlights and curiosities.
In the penultimate Euro League group game for Leverkusen, it looks like a defeat for a long time. It is thanks to Robert Andrich’s brace and a flash of inspiration from Florian Wirtz that Bayer still wins in their own stadium.
94th minute: Last-minute unity strikes again
In the 89th minute everything looks like the Eintracht fans have to march out of the stadium with their heads down. But once again the Frankfurters show good morals. Because for the good first half, the Frankfurters reward each other in the second.
Union forces victory in the “grotto kick” against Maccabi
More work victory is not possible. In a game that has been babbling for a long time, Union simply uses its opportunities better than the opponent. With the win in Haifa, advancement is still possible.
Rangers cheer for the strangest goal of the day
Between the Glasgow Rangers and Sparta Prague, the evening will be about the perfect starting position for the group final in the Europa League. And then defender Filip Panak makes an incredible mistake that decides the game.
Feyenoord scores thanks to the complaint arm and the Zidane trick
Pyro party, sent off, goalkeeping mistakes – the match between Feyenoord and Sparta Prague delivers everything football can do in 90 minutes. There is a particular focus on Cyriel Dessers. The Feyenoord attacker first scored a bizarre hit to equalize and was back in stoppage time.
Six-goal spectacle: Marseille goes swimming at Galatasaray
The Turkish record champions Galatasaray Istanbul do not want to show any nakedness in front of a sold out house. Against Olympique Marseille, the spectators see an entertaining game with ultimately harmless guests. A Dutch veteran meets just ten seconds after being substituted on.
Sevillas Canales succeeds in achieving a dream goal à la Robben
Ferencvaros Budapest didn’t score a single point in the first four Europa League games. It is easy to imagine that this will not change in the penultimate game of the group stage. The 1-0 after five minutes can be followed by ex-Real kicker Sergio Canales a dream goal.
Brilliant save can not prevent Rapids elimination
Even before the kick-off, it is clear how difficult the task will be. Because the lockdown in Austria does not let any spectators into the stadium. Rapid Vienna fights against West Ham United as best they can. At the Premier League club, an old friend from the Bundesliga is particularly convincing.
Rangers win thanks to Morelos brace against Sparta
Gerrard’s successor Gio van Bronckhorst can celebrate with his Glasgow Rangers. Striker Alfredo Morelos was particularly convincing in the Scots’ victory against Sparta Prague. The great template for the second goal does not come from a team-mate.
Soares lets the cauldron cheer late in Piraeus
The starting position for Olympiakos is clear, with a win the Greeks would certainly be one lap ahead. Mesut Özil is not there for Fenerbahçe, but another well-known face from the Bundesliga. The game rocks back and forth, nothing happens for a long time. Then comes the 90th minute.
Maddison dances irresistibly through Legia’s defenses
“No Vardy, no Party” is what fans in Leicester say. Nevertheless, the top English striker sits on the bench at the start of the game. That his team can still cheer is due to the accuracy of Patson Daka and an ingenious action by his national team colleague James Maddison.
Götze can only be stopped with a foul in the penalty area
The fans have to stay outside and are missing out on an entertaining game. Led by a tireless Mario Götze, PSV Eindhoven achieved a virtually never endangered win against Sturm Graz. For the team of trainer Roger Schmidt, the three points are still possible.
