Football: Basel beaten for the 1st time in the Conference League

Surprisingly qualified in the Conference League, FC Vaduz continues to impress on the European front. Thursday evening, the Liechtensteiners brought back a draw (2-2) from their trip to Slovakia where they faced the Ukrainians of SK Dnipro-1. Quickly behind following a goal from Artem Dovbyk, Alessandro Mangiarratti’s players were able to stay in the match even if the Ukrainians kept the ball better. And they were rewarded in the 26th minute, when Fabio Fehr found the fault to equalize. Better, on returning from the locker room following half-time, Cédric Pascal Gasser doubled the bet for the visitors (47th). With these three points, Vaduz would have found themselves second in their pool, but a success from Oleksandr Pikhalyonok (78th) brought the two teams to a tie. The Liechtensteiners are therefore third in their group (2 points), two lengths behind their evening opponents before the second round match next Thursday.
