Fenerbahçe arsaVev will continue its European campaign in the UEFA Women’s Cup second preliminary round following a dramatic penalty shootout exit from the UEFA Women’s Champions League qualifiers against OH Leuven. The Turkish side’s aspirations of reaching the primary group stage of Europe’s premier club competition ended on the spot after a hard-fought two-leg battle, redirecting their continental ambitions to the second tier of European competition.
Champions League Heartbreak on Penalties
The decisive blow in the Champions League qualification path came against Belgian side OH Leuven. According to match reports from Hürriyet and Haber 7, Fenerbahçe’s qualification dream slipped away during the penalty shootout after regulation and extra time could not separate the two evenly matched squads.
