UEFA Europa Conference League Second Qualifying Round, Second Leg
FK Kesla 2-4 FC Sochi (2-7 on aggregate)
Thursday July 29, ASK Arena, Baku

Goals: Kesla - Santos 35’, Haziev 52’; Sochi - Dugandzic 21’, 82’, Burmistrov 38’, Margasov 70’

Sochi managed to secure passage into the third round of the new UEFA Europa Conference League thanks to a strong first leg performance at home. Vladimir Fedotov’s men were held today in Azerbaijan by a strong-willed opposition, but goals from Marko Dugandzic and Nikita Burmistrov were enough to be the better team over two legs. 

Sochi will now face Akhmat Grozny on Monday 2 August, before taking on Partizan Belgrade in the next round of the Conference League next week.
