Unless something completely unexpected happens, Lincoln appears set to be Omonia’s opponent if Omonia fails to get past Kairat.
The team from Gibraltar lost 3-0 to Mialbi on the road, in their first match against each other in the second qualifying round of the Champions League and is now… one and a half steps away from being eliminated from the competition.
Of course, their European campaign doesn’t end here, as they will “be relegated” to the Europa League, where they’ll face the loser of the “Greens’” matchup in the third qualifying round.
As for the match itself, the Swedes were the better team throughout and… put the game away by halftime thanks to goals by Samuelsen (18′, 24′) and Bergström (32′). After the break, they had the chance to extend their lead even further, but the 22-year-old missed from the penalty spot.
The second leg will take place next Tuesday (July 28) at 7:00 p.m., with Lincoln looking for a soccer miracle and Mjällby playing without pressure, having a three-goal “cushion.”
