- Qarabag-Molde 0-0, 5-6 after penalty shoot-out
MOLD SLO The Slovenian Celje and had the opportunity to meet Qarabag about the right to the playoffs in the Champions League, it was the margins of football that saved them.
Tonight in Cyprus there was sheer perseverance and will.
After 45 minutes he looked desperate, after 90 it was anticipated that this would be heavy, and when Etzaz Hussain burned a penalty six minutes into the first extra inning, it was actually a black night.
From there and in, Molde did most of the things right.
When the penalty demanded precision from eleven meters, Erling Moe’s team did absolutely everything right.
– The most crazy
FOOTBALL GAMES LIKE THIS It’s often time for the prize to be as big as a Champions League playoff shot. At the other end of the two games to be played in the next two weeks, she awaits a cash victory of 15.25 million euros.
Patience will always be a virtue on those nights, especially when you feel behind and don’t make it flow.
This Wednesday night, Molde had that ability.
They played with the percentages, they did not take unnecessary risks and in the end they won.
FOR ELEVEN YEARS since Qarabag beat Rosenborg 1-0 in two games. After 0-0 in Lerkendal, it was 1-0 in Baku. Three years ago, Ståle Solbakken’s FC Copenhagen were defeated in the Champions League playoffs. After 1-0 at home, Qarabag scored the away goal that took them further in the Park (2-1 FCK).
At the Molde site, due to COVID-19 and the ten-day quarantine that automatically follows the return from a non-Schengen country, it was, on the other hand, a single match without spectators on a neutral field in Cyprus.
Basically it should make it a little easier.
Not really.
VICTORIA DE MOLDES ON Qarabag is a triumph that is all about stamina, bloodshed, cramps, willpower, and good player changes. Those who failed did their part and helped soften the opponent.
Those who arrived in time to influence events, Ola Brynhildsen, Ohi Omoijuanfo and Mathis Bolly, changed the balance of power in the match.
Besides Eirik Hestad, of course, the dominant player on the field in the extra innings.
It was easy to see why the Italian Lecce wanted the shaper.
THE VICTORY OF CYPRUS sends Molde to the Champions League playoffs and guarantees Europa League group stage matches. Only there you have the biggest soccer game of the year for MFK. Furthermore, 30 million UEFA crowns can already be reserved for this year’s international efforts.
Whatever happens against Ferencvaros, Molde will play six games in Europe.
Almost atmosphere
HOUSE IN NORWAY It may appear that Molde is playing in a straitjacket in terms of delivering good football plus as many points as possible in the Elite Series. They don’t have to do that in Europe. When it comes down to the path to the Promised Land, only results count.
En route to league gold that opened the door to this physical achievement in Cyprus, Molde lost four league games.
So far this year, they have lost five of 17, all losses from the last eight games.
In Europe, on the other hand, they win the battles by overcoming the problems they face.
The big winner of the transfer window
In Europe, Molde has a dimension that Norway does not have.
VICTORY OVER QARABAG says Molde is better than their home title defense in Norway suggests, and that the team has the power, will and backbone it takes when it comes to that. A decayed and lacking confidence team had lost this match in 90 minutes.
Molde won 6-5 on penalties because he has things to prove and to take revenge against.
They are not yet in the Champions League, but the door is ajar.
How Erling Moe prioritizes him in relation to the next three points at the Eliteserien is seen in the team he faces Vålerenga with on Saturday in. 18.00
