BATE Borisov of Belarus 0-1 Shakhter Karagandy of Kazakhstan was a big surprise today. In other games: Viktoria Plzen of Czech Republic 4-3 Zeljeznicar of Bosnia-Herzegovina (Viktoria Plzen has a much better coefficient but only won by 1 at home with 3 away goals allowed) Dinamo Tbilisi of Georgia 6-1 EB/Streymur of Faroe Islands (I expected Dinamo Tbilisi to win but not by that much) Ekranas of Lithuania 0-1 FH Hafnarfjardar of Iceland (a seeded club lost at home) Sheriff Tiraspol of Moldova 1-1 Sutjeska Niksic of Montenegro (a seeded club played a draw at home to an unseeded club with a 1.300 coefficient) Birkirkara of Malta 0-0 NK Maribor of Slovenia (NK Maribor has the much better coefficient) Fola Esch of Luxembourg 0-5 Dinamo Zagreb of Croatia (Dinamo Zagreb won easily as expected although they didn't score until the 59th minute) Steaua Bucuresti of Romania 3-0 Vardar Skopje of FYR Macedonia (Steaua Bucuresti has a much better coefficient)
Today's Qualifying Round 2 first leg results: Slovan Bratislava of Slovakia was down 1-0, got a red card in the 81st minute, and got two goals by the same player including a 90+3rd minute penalty kick for a 2-1 home win over Ludogorets Razgrad of Bulgaria. Shirak Gyumri of Armenia (0.850 coefficient) hosted and surprisingly almost beat Partizan of Serbia (17.425 coefficient). Partizan scored in the 90+3rd minute for a 1-1 draw. HJK Helsinki of Finland should be disappointed with a scoreless draw hosting Kalju Nomme of Estonia. Neftchi Baku of Azerbaijan should also be disappointed with a scoreless draw at home. Their coefficient is over double the coefficient of their opponent, Skenderbeu Korce of Albania. IF Elfsborg of Sweden hosted and dominated with a 7-1 win over Daugava Daugavpils of Latvia. Like Slovan Bratislava and Partizan, IF Elfsborg scored in second half stoppage time. Molde FK of Norway won 1-0 at Sligo Rovers of Ireland. Legia Warsaw of Poland went to The New Saints of Wales. The New Saints blew a 1-0 halftime lead as Legia Warsaw won 3-1. Maccabi Tel Aviv of Israel won 2-0 at EYO Gyor of Hungary. Maccabi Tel Aviv was one of four clubs to score in second half stoppage time. As expected, Celtic of Scotland had an easy trip to Cliftonville of Northern Ireland as Celtic won 3-0. The four clubs that won away and IF Elfsborg should advance next week. Slovan Bratislava, who won 2-1 at home to Ludogorets Razgrad, and the six clubs that participated in three draws are more up for grabs, although with an away draw and a much better coefficient it would be a shock if Partizan did not advance.
13 out of 17 pairings ended today. Shakhter Karagandy (won 1-0 in each leg against BATE Borisov), Kalju Nomme (won 2-1 at home after a scoreless draw at HJK Helsinki), Skenderbeu Korce (scored the only aggregate goal in second leg extra time to beat Neftchi Baku), and FH Hafnarfjardar (won 1-0 at Ekranas and 2-1 at home) are the four unseeded clubs that advanced.
