Europa League
Europa League in the conference – LIVE from 18:45
With Manchester United, Eintracht Frankfurt, Athletic Bilbao, Lazio Rome and Glasgow Rangers, there are some top-class quarter-finalists in the Europa League! Roma, meanwhile, are out - after Mats Hummels was shown a straight red and apologized after the game ...
Bilbao knocked AS Roma, who were decimated early on, out of the competition with a 3:1 home win and can continue to hope for a final in their own stadium. Frankfurt did not let Ajax back into the game after a 2-1 win in Amsterdam and followed up with a 4-1 home victory. Lazio drew 1-1 with Viktoria Pilsen and Bodö/Glimt lost 2-1 in Piraeus.
Lightning red for Hummels
Jean-Matteo Bahoya (7') and Mario Götze (25') made it all clear early on for Eintracht with some spectacular goals. Hugo Ekitiké (67) and Götze again (82) and Kenneth Taylor (78) scored in the second half. In Bilbao, Roma defender Mats Hummels was sent off as the last man in the 11th minute (11). The German former world champion had got himself into trouble with a bad pass.
He wrote on Instagram after the game: "I'm sorry. I'd like to apologize to our fans and my teammates. I let everyone down today with a mistake that was just stupid and terrible."
The Basques then turned their superiority into goals from Nico Williams (45+3, 82) and Yuri Berchiche (68).
There was no excitement in Piraeus, where Olympiakos defeated Bodö/Glimt 2-1 thanks to a brace from Ukrainian striker Roman Jaremtschuk. However, the 3-0 deficit from the first leg was too great. Rodinei also missed a penalty for Olympiakos. Lazio Roma beat Viktoria Pilsen 3:2 on aggregate. The Italians remained unbeaten at home for the 13th EL match in a row despite trailing 1-1. Bilbao will face Glasgow Rangers, who beat Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce on penalties. The Turks had previously equalized a 1:3 first leg away from home (0:2).
Man United and Tottenham progress
Manchester United reached the quarter-finals on penalties. Captain Bruno Fernandes converted two penalties in the 4-1 home win against Real Sociedad on Thursday, and the Basques also scored from the spot. The Red Devils will face Lyon in the next round, while Eintracht Frankfurt will take on Tottenham.
In Manchester, Sociedad were at odds with the French refereeing team. The penalty whistle before the 2:1 (50') could be described as flattering, but the exclusion of Jon Aramburu (63') as the last man was clearer. Patrick Dorgu was brought down in each case. Benoit Bastien pointed to the spot a fourth time in the final minute, but Dorgu himself waved off the referee. But even so, the superior English side scored through Fernandes (87) and Diogo Dalot (91). Upcoming opponents Lyon remained confident against Romanian representatives FCSB Bucharest (7:1).
Tottenham lived up to their status as favorites against AZ Alkmaar with a 3:1 home win. Wilson Odobert was the man of the match with two goals (26th, 74th). ÖFB team defender Kevin Danso was missing for Spurs, who lost 1-0 in the first leg, with a thigh injury. Frankfurt await in the next round. Eintracht did not let Ajax back into the game after the 2:1 in Amsterdam and followed up with a 4:1 home win. Jean-Matteo Bahoya (7th) and Mario Götze (25th) made everything clear early on with spectacular goals. Hugo Ekitiké (67), Götze again (82) and Kenneth Taylor (78) scored in the second half.
