After Braga dispatched Ferencváros on Wednesday, this Thursday (19) began with three more second-leg matches in the UEFA Europa League Round of 16.

Freiburg and Celta advanced in regular time.

Meanwhile, Forest took the game against Midtjylland to a penalty shootout and won without their goalkeeper, Ortega, needing to work.

The Belgian team entered the field with the advantage of a draw after winning at home 1 x 0.

🇩🇪 Freiburg 5 x 1 Genk 🇧🇪 - 5x2 on aggregate

And they did not succeed in containing the rival's momentum.

Ginter (19') and Matanovic (25') secured a good lead for the German team. Smets reduced the deficit (39').

The second half came, bringing goals from top scorer Vincenzo Grifo (53'), Suzuki (57'), and Eggestein (79').

Freiburg will face Celta in the quarter-finals.

🇫🇷 Lyon 0 x 2 Celta 🇪🇸

The 1 x 1 draw in the first leg left everything open on French soil.

However, Paulo Fonseca's men complicated things early on with Niakhate's expulsion at 18 minutes.

The situation could have worsened after Tagliafico's entry - which went unnoticed.

Hindered by the expulsion, Endrick played even further from the goal.

Celta began to control the actions.

And scored at 15 in the second half with Rueda - who also scored in the first leg.

Without the substitute Endrick, Lyon tried. But they only hit the rival's goal once.

They left the expected spaces, and Celta scored again with Jutglá at 48'.

Tagliafico was also sent off in the final minute.

Celta reinforces their good season, as they are sixth in La Liga and continue to pursue the continental title.

Midtjylland 1 (0) x (3) 2 Nottingham Forest 🏴

The English team was surprised at home by losing 1 x 0.

They entered the field knowing they needed to win.

Nicolás Dominguez opened the scoring (40').

And captain Yates extended the lead in the second half (7').

However, the hosts secured extra time with Erlic's goal (24').

Extra time was balanced, but with only one shot on target - from Midtjylland.

The penalty shootout came.

And the home team's lack of accuracy.

Cho Gue-Sung and Simsir hit the right post.

Chilufya slipped.

Forest was 100% and won 3 x 0.

They now wait for the winner of Porto versus Stuttgart.

Who are currently facing each other.
