Milan through, they were extremely lucky. Rio Ave had one penalty crash against a post, fly across the goal and hit the other post and out. So close to going through themselves.

Donnarumma was a bit unlucky not to save one of them. Bit limp wristed though and it went under his body and trickled over the line

And the Rio Ave centreback. Moment of absolute madness to concede a pen with the last kick of normal time. What a crazy match.

Best case I'd say is Liege, Rangers or Molde and Dundalk. Both for quality of teams and travel reasons.

Worst case is definitely Sociedad, Hoffenheim, Lille.
Agree but think I would put Milan above Hoffenheim, with Zlatan leading that team they are a different beast

Oh absolutely, my post was based on Milan not going through when they were losing in the 115th minute.

Crazy penalty shoot out between Ac Milan and Rio Ave yesterday. Both keepers had to step up



Thank fuck for Donnarumma. Forza Milan!

First of all they were one brain fart away from going through 2-1 AET.

Ciro Ferrara hasn't aged a day since he played for Napoli and Juventus. Funny moment when Ciro couldnt spell out Red Star or as he tried to "Crvena zvezda" :D

Not too much mileage involved for us.

Dundalk would have hoped for a bigger club maybe ?

This makes things a bit easier...

Five substitutes
From this stage onwards, teams will be permitted to field up to five substitutes in a Europa League match and name 12 substitutes on the bench. For knockout matches, a sixth substitution can also be made during extra time.

Each team may use a maximum of three stoppages in play to make substitutions – one additional stoppage in extra-time can be used. Substitutions made during half-time, between the end of normal playing time and extra-time, and at half-time during extra-time do not reduce the number of stoppages in play that can be used.

Will be more beneficial to us with the size and quality in depth we have now also! We can probably name most our attacking midfielders on the bench :LOL:
