Incredible denouement of the fight in Greece
Zagreb Dynamo away tied with the Greek AEKom in the second leg of the third qualifying round Champions League. The entire match for the Croatian team was played by a Ukrainian defender Bogdan Mikhailichenko.
By the 90th minute of the meeting, Dynamo were leading 2-0. As part of the Croatian team, Josip Shutalo and Robert Ljubicic distinguished themselves.
However, in injury time, AEK made an incredible comeback and bounced back. First, Sergio Araujo scored, and in the 90+10th minute, the ex-defender of Dynamo Kyiv, Domagoj Vida, successfully played on the rebound after an unrealized penalty.
The first match ended with a minimal victory for AEK – 2:1. Thus, the Greek team reached the playoffs of the Champions League, where they will play with Antwerp. Dynamo will meet with Sparta Prague in the playoffs of the Europa League qualifier.
Recall that AEK and Dynamo were supposed to meet in Greece on August 8, but due to the murder of a Greek fan, the match was postponed to August 19.
