Missed chances in Lille were severely punished - Red Star players were eliminated in the Europa League playoffs.

Dinamo Zagreb also said goodbye to Europe, although they had a reaction after a 3:1 defeat at Maksimir to Genk.
"The Blues" responded in kind in Belgium, reaching extra time (a goal by Bakrar and two by Stojković), but it wasn't enough.
