60 ‘Ron Jans intervenes and brings Adrien Blake to the side for Sébastien Haller. Does this striker know how to score for Utrecht?
55 ‘Goal Panathinaikos! 1-0
Ai, Go Ahead also looks at a backlog in Greece. Karol Swiderski heads a corner hit on behalf of the Greeks. Does Go Ahead know how to turn this around?
Feyenoord setup! Robin van Persie starts against Aston Villa with his strongest eleven players. He didn’t do this against Braga. Sem Steijn is fit again, after he missed the Eredivisie match with FC Groningen for a flu. Timber is not there due to an injury.
46 ‘kick -off second half! The ball rolls again at Brann-FC Utrecht and Panathinaikos-Go Ahead Eagles.
Setup Aston Villa! No Donyell Malen at Feyenoord-Aston Villa. The Dutchman is sitting on the couch in De Kuip. Ian Maatsen can start in Rotterdam.
In the meantime we count to Feyenoord-Aston Villa. The Kuip kicks off at 9 p.m. Does Robin van Persie throw his entire arrangement again or is he holding on to his regular basic eleven this time?
In terms of statistics, it does not look good for Go Ahead Eagles:
Panathinaikos-Go Ahead Eagles: 0-0
Rest! In both Greece and Norway it is time for a tea in the dressing room. With the Domstedelingen, Ron Jans looks at a 1-0 deficit and will talk to his players firmly in the break. At Go Ahead Eagles it is still 0-0, but it is a miracle that Panathinaikos has not yet scored.
41 ‘Goal SK Brann! 1-0
Then things go wrong for FC Utrecht … Magnusson is in the right place and shoots the ball with some luck. There was even a Utrecht leg in between. Barkas tries to get rid of the ball, but can only watch lying.
36 ‘There is FC Utrecht again. This time it is Blake with a shot, but it stays with a goal attempt. The keeper has the ball clamping.
28 ‘There the Busser is again! Cerin wants to head in the ball, but the Belgian ticks the ball out of his goal.
26 ‘The free kick by El Karaouni does not provide a chance. In the Eredivisie he notes one assist one after the other, but not yet in Europe. Will he succeed later today?
23 ‘In Greece, Jari de Busser is so far the hero of the Deventenaren. After a great salvation on a bet by Tete, he is also alert to a long shot of the Greeks.
19 ‘Chance FC Utrecht! After a great pass from Zechiel, Min does not finish it. The striker shoots the ball with his left leg in the past the Norwegian goal.
17 ‘In Norway it is waiting for the first shot for goal. FC Utrecht tries to play football under pressure, but does not really succeed.
The Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium is not full in Athens. Due to renovations, half of the stadium is not available. The fans of Go Ahead Eagles are present in large numbers.
10 ‘Chance Go Ahead! It is Breum with the first shot on goal, but it is not really dangerous.
3 ‘Brann performs the pressure in the opening phase against Utrecht. The Norwegians come close to the Utrecht goal via Dragnes, but the attacker does not come to a good shot.
1 ‘kick -off! The ball rolls with Go Ahead and FC Utrecht. Do both Dutch teams win the second European competition?

Feyenoord is preparing for a heavy poster in -house. Aston Villa has a difficult season in the Premier League so far, but won the first Europa League match from Bologna: 1-0. In the first European match, the Rotterdammers painfully fell against the Portuguese Braga. In the competition, Feyenoord was able to beat FC Groningen and occupies the lead after seven rounds. In De Kuip, Feyenoord has the home advantage, but whether that will help Robin van Persie’s team still have to be seen.
Go Ahead trainer Boel expects spicy match in Athens Go Ahead Eagles trainer Melvin Boel is looking forward to the match in Athens, but also knows that he will find a cunning opponent with Panathinaikos. “It’s a very mature team,” he said at the press conference on Wednesday. “They can play very businesslike and have a lot of individual quality. But if we play our football, with enthusiasm, depth and energy, we can make the opponents very difficult.”
Do you remember him? Former FC Utrecht player Vito Wormgoor was photographed earlier today in the shirts of both Brann and FC Utrecht. The defender played one season for FC Utrecht (2008/2009, after which he played for Brann between 2017 and 2019.
Go Ahead Eagles director Jan Willem van Dop expects the game to continue. “The predictions are that it will rain a lot. I have heard that they have a good field with a good drainage system, but you never know,” says Van Dop in conversation with AD. “The atmosphere is great, I think everyone enjoys.”
The heavy rainfall in Athens caused a lot of traffic problems today. In several places there are no more trams due to water on the track. Until now, the game between Go Ahead and Panathinaikos continues, although there are still heavy outside tonight.
For Go Ahead Eagles, it threatens to be a water ballet tonight on the field in Athens. The fans don’t seem to matter.
