UEFA Europa League

Feyenoord were struggling badly to break the deadlock against bottom-half Groningen in the weekend’s Eredivisie action. They eventually made it count two minutes from time through Ousamma Idrissi to pick up a massive three-pointer.

The team led by Arne Slot are still three points above Ajax at the top of the domestic league standings.

Feyenoord will continue their European adventure on Thursday evening with the road clash against Shakhtar Donetsk in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League R16 tie on the neutral venue of Stadion Miejski in Warsaw, Poland.

Shakhtar Donetsk made a huge upset by eliminating French Ligue 1 outfit Rennes on penalties in the knockout phase playoffs.

The Ukrainian side found a way to get back in the reverse outing despite conceding an extra-time goal at Roazhon Park.

They will come into this in high spirits following back-to-back impressive wins in the domestic league.

The team led by Croatian manager Igor Jovicevic bagged eleven goals in the successive road wins over Minai and Metalist Kharkiv in the previous two rounds in the Ukrainian Premier League.

Shakhtar thus took advantage of some unexpected Dnipro-1 slip-ups to move level on points with the main title challengers at the top of the league table.
