Football – OL win in Glasgow, Shaqiri comes into play

A clear strike from Toko Ekambi (23rd), a mess after’a close shot from Slimani who s’ended with a goal against his camp at Tavernier (55th) and the’OL came home from’Scotland with three points in the baggage compartment, thanks to its only two shots on target in the game. A successful and realistic entry into the competition, in which Shaqiri participated for about twenty minutes.

The Bâlois was initially not to be on the trip because of’an imbroglio as to its vaccination status. Eventually, he was able to be taken to Ibrox Park by his coach Peter Bosz, who l’introduced on the lawn when the fate of the meeting was already played. «XS» replaced the first scorer of the evening and went to position himself on the right flank of the’Rhone attack. Shaqiri didn’t have time to touch qu‘udo ten times the ball.

The French clubs have finished this first evening of the Cups d’Europe say «minor» with a smile, even if Marseille wasted a goal’advance to the 89th, 11 against 10, against Lokomotiv Moscow (1-1), still in the Europa League. Monaco for its part beat Sturm Graz (1-0) in C3, while Rennes, in Europe Conference League, pulled off a good draw at home against Tottenham (2-2).

In Group G, Gerardo Seoane’s Bayer Leverkusen defeated Ferencvaros (2-1). In the other meeting, Swiss international Albian Ajeti played a good part with Celtic Glasgow against Betis in Seville. But his family then collapsed (3-4).

The Basel striker was established by the Scottish club for the first time this season last Saturday against Ross County (3-0) and he convinced of a double.

Ajeti followed up in C3 on Thursday, opening the scoring in Spain – his first goal in eleven games on the continental front – before getting the 0-2 penalty. But his team then cracked wide, conceding four goals in 21 minutes straddling halftime.

The big shock of this 1st day opposed Leicester to Naples. The Foxes opened the scoring by Pérez (9th), then doubled the bet by Barnes (64th), but Osimhen then struck twice (69th, 87th) and saved the Neapolitans (2-2).

Another game with twists and turns pitted Friborg goalkeeper Yvon Mvogo’s PSV Eindhoven (who remained on the bench) against Real Sociedad, who led 2-1 at the break on the Dutch lawn. Then the PSV equalized at 2-2, thanks in particular to its German world champion, “Super Mario” Götze.

In Group D, Djibril Sow’s Eintracht Frankfurt was held in check by Fenerbahçe (1-1). The Zurich midfielder played the entire game and came close to scoring a goal, but came up against Turkish goalkeeper Bayindir.
