PSV Eindhoven and Milan showed tonight at the "Philips Arena" that both of them have a place in the Champions League. Someone, however, will have to go to the Europa League, and the elites are closer to the Milanese - the famous Italian club won 1:1, which gives them better chances before the rematch at "San Siro".
Milan took the lead in the 15th minute, when El Shaarawy headed into the net a great cross from Abate from the right. The Dutch continued to play slightly better football, but they needed the help of their opponents to equalize - goalkeeper Abijati reacted desperately in the 60th minute after a long-range shot, so Slovene Matavž, last year's "blood" of Zeta, had no difficulty in pushing the ball into the goal. network.
"Milan is waiting for confirmation in the second leg," wrote "Gazeta delo sport".
Real Sociedad has great chances to play in the Champions League for the first time in its history, after the victory over the "on-call" member of the elite, the Lyon team, and that away - 0:2. The clash at "Žerlan" was marked by two spectacular goals from the Basque team (Grizman with scissors, Seferović with 30 meters), as well as the red card that Serbian referee Milorad Mažić awarded to the Serbian defender in Lyon, Milan Biševac.
