Benfica, with the Colombian flyer Richard Ríos throughout the game, achieved on Wednesday his classification for the European Champions League after beating the Fenerbahce of José Mourinho by the minimum (1-0), while the witches got his pass with a spectacular win against the Glasgow Rangers (6-0).
The Turk Kerem Akturboglu was the author of the sole of the tie between Portuguese and Ottomans after the zero drawing. The players of Mourinho, including Colombian John Jader Durán, will have to settle for a position in the European League.
While Ríos was one of the figures of the meeting and acted during the 95 minutes of the duel, John Jader Durán entered the 65th minute and had little participation. He even hit just before the final whistle.
The witches had an easy duel against the Rangers after the expulsion of Maximillian Aarons in the 8th minute that gave the Belgian team more advantage, which had already expired by 1-3 in the first leg and ended up condemning the Scots to fit six goals.
The Qarabag of Azerbaijan will also be in the final phase after overcoming an exciting tie against Hungarian Ferecvaros. The 1-3 of the first leg for the Azerbaiyans seemed to be sufficient tranquility, but the Ferncvaros got 2-3 in the absence of 10 minutes and only a goal to send the game to the extension, although it remained without finishing off the task.
The tie between Danish Copenhagen and the Swiss baseline was very tight in the first leg (1-1) and more determined in the return (2-0). Some of Andreas Cornelius and another from German Youssoufa Moukoko, former Dortmund, gave the pass to the locals.
The winners will be in the draw on Thursday at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco, while the defeated teams go to the European League.
