Sovereign 3-0 win over Sofia: YB is back in Europa League in impressive fashion – sport

• YB holds the pressure in the third game of the Europa League group and beats CSKA Sofia 3-0.
• The winner of the match is Felix Mambimbi, who scores a double.
• In the other Group A match, AS Roma celebrated a 5-0 win against Cluj.

Ready, set, goal! YB started out energetic and successful. After just 96 seconds, 19-year-old Felix Mambimbi fired the home team forward after a serious mistake by Sofia captain Valentin Antonov. Three minutes later, the Bulgarians were lucky not to have already lost 3-0. Mambimbi (4th) and Christian Fassnacht (5th) missed two first-rate opportunities.

A little recovered from the false start, the guests acted offensively. Too offensive, and that quickly got revenge:

• 18. Minute: After conquering the ball, he goes straight to the point: first Miralem Sulejmani starts the attack with Jean-Pierre Nsame, then ends up making it 2-0.
• 30 minutes: Again, the guests can be countered. Fassnacht is not attacked by the right wing. His center in the center winks at Mambimbi to make it 3-0. Like 1-0, 19-year-old Antonov looks old.

Subsequently, the series of Bulgarian attacks hardly appeared. Just a shot from the post from Ali Sowe in the 37th minute made the Berners sit up and notice. “Yellow-black”, meanwhile, rocked the game very freely over time.

Coach Gerardo Seoane can remember a very pleasant evening. With his decision to let Mambimbi and Sulejmani rally early on compared to the first two Europa League matches, he showed a golden hand.

The victory could be worth gold in the fight for a ticket to the knockout phase. In the table, YB is now in second place behind AS Roma, tied with Cluj.

Rome mit Gala gegen Cluj

Last week, Roma only saw a sad 0-0 draw against Sofia despite high-caliber opportunities. The Romans made up for the goals in a duel with Cluj. 57 seconds were played when Henrich Mchitarjan nodded to the home team up front. Until the break, Roger Ibáñez (24th) and Borja Mayoral (34th) scored. Shortly before the end, the “Giallorossi” began the gala. In the end, AS Roma recorded a 5-0 victory and led the championship in Group A.
