The problem was resolved! Gaz Metan Medias will play the first match in Wien and the second match in Cluj, even if the draw decided different! So Steaua will play as scheduled the first leg in Cluj and the 2nd leg in Sofia! I am happy because we play the decisive match in Sofia where I think we will feel more at home then in that Horible CFR Cluj stadium that we call home
... - I'm sad to see the price for this match. where the Panatinaikos match only was 20 Euro... - They take 40 for this one... I really don't think we don't get the stadion sold-out because of the price... As a student I don't have that kind of money laying around for a football match sadly :/

), and this is by far the weakest rival we could've got. I think Partizan is a clear favorite, and personally I think it would be a sensation if Shamrock eliminates us. Everything will be finished in Ireland, I am sure. I expect Partizan to win with at least 2-3 goals in Shamrock's net in both matches. Both matches against Genk should go and serve as a case study for the book "How to lose the game you should've won" X-OI We had everything, and then we got a penalty by playing handball just like on the World Cup last year, and as we didn't won, we got eliminated. But that's life. I am happy that we outplayed Genk in both matches, and we never managed to outplay the Belgian champion (Anderlecht, Standard and Brigge) in the previous occasions where we met them. Crvena Zvezda will play against Stade Rennais in the Europa League play off. They have chances, but Rennais is a favorite I think. They are physically much better and stronger than Zvezda, have a very strong attack, while Zvezda's defense is quite bad.
- I didn't see the FCK match, because I was watching the Arsenal match... But looking at FCK's tactic and the reactions to the match from the friends of mine I must say HOW COULD NILSON PUT CLAUDIMIR AS FORWARD?! Didn't you have both Santin and Nordstrand (the last guy whom I think is a underated player)
Hans Backe was kinda meh, but Roland Nilsson seems even worse. I want our epic Norwegian back from Köln.
Steaua Bucharest - CSKA Sofia 2 - 0 
? Slask Wroclaw - Rapid Bucharest 1 - 3 SC Vaslui - Sparta Praga 2 - 0 Austria Viena - Gaz Metan Medias 3 - 1 ( Vorskla Poltava - Dinamo Bucharest 2 - 1 ( It was Rabotnicki's worst play ever. They were afraid from the very first minute and made so many mistakes, luckily the goalie saved many of those shots. Rabotnicki played with few key players, but even that is no reason why they played like a team from San Marino, defending themselves in the first half. :? Anyway, it is now clear that Lazio is going through. I would be happy if Rabotnicki wins home with just 1:0. 
HJK Helsinki vs. FC Schalke 04 2:0 Hannover 96 vs. FC Sevilla 2:1
Shamrock Rovers 1-1 Partizan^ Our formation was 4-5-1 which was completely stupid and inconsiderable bearing in mind that we were on home ground where we haven't lost in 25 matches (well, till two days ago). We had to attack, and yet Roland decides for us to go with a defensive tactic. :shock:
Nordstrand has been underestimated, yes, and he actually came in as a substitute later that game, but made no remarkable difference. The guy lacks some physics and strength to compete on international level imo, though in Superligaen he's okay.
Besides...the players that have arrived this summer have not been able to match the ones who left...
For example, we bought Pate Diouf from Norway for no less than 18 mio DKKR which is insane looking at how bad he's been for us. Grindheim hasn't been able to live up to his reputation from Norway either. I thought he'd be the new Linderoth and a real fighter, but so far not impressed.
Btw, Claudemir wasn't on top as forward (oh dear, that would've a disaster), it was N'Doye.
If things doesn't improve on saturday against Horsens I dunno where we're heading. Crisis is probably too early to talk about, but I don't think it's that far away. Among us fans the talking about firing him has already begun.
It's pretty obvious that Swedish coaches aren't the best for us
Another problem in the club as I see it is the attitude. Because we've been playing CL a couple of times people start to take it all for granted. CL is something you have to fight for no matter the opponent. We clearly underestimated Viktoria Plzen and now we've learned it the hard way. At the draw some supporters where like "oh well, a czech team we don't even know about, therefore we must overrule them completely"....same happened with APOEL from Cyprus some years ago.
Who knows, maybe it's a good thing for us to sit out for this year's Champions Leauge as it may teach managers, fans, and players to value and appreciate a place in Champions League.
We'll let OB take over this year and wave the danish flag for us as you seem like much more worthy participants this year. It was clear that your players wanted to do everything possible for a spot in CL, so the victory couldn't be more deserved. Madrigal will be tough, but definitely possible.
The most positive thing about playing in Europe League is that we have the opportunity to draw Spurs for group stage. Would be so epic to have them in Copenhagen.
