NEC Nijmegen and Olympiakos
Tuesday
NEC earned a 0-0 away draw against Olympiakos in the first leg of their Champions League third qualifying-round tie. The Dutch side produced an impressive performance despite losing midfielder Kodai Sano shortly before the scheduled kick-off.
NEC created enough opportunities to threaten a victory and defended effectively in Greece. The return leg takes place in Nijmegen next Thursday, with the winner advancing to face Union Saint-Gilloise or Bodo/Glimt in the play-offs.
