Match Recap

Besfort Zeneli single-handedly turned Celta Vigo's Europa League night upside down, scoring twice to drag Union St. Gilloise from behind to a 2-1 win in Vigo. Pablo Durán Fernández had given the hosts the perfect start with an early strike inside eleven minutes, but Zeneli leveled things just before the half-hour mark and struck again four minutes into the second half to complete the comeback. The result tells two very different stories in the standings: Union St. Gilloise climb to seventh with seven points and a WDW run that shows real consistency, while Celta Vigo slip to 24th after a WLL stretch that now reads as one win in three. Neither side has a player among the league's top ten scorers, with K. Zachariassen still out in front on eight goals, but Zeneli's brace here is exactly the kind of form that closes that gap fast. For a team sitting 24 points, 17 ranks and one bad half behind their opponents, letting a lead slip to a man in this kind of scoring streak was always going to be costly. Watch both Zeneli strikes, the 35th and 49th minute goals that flipped this UEFA Europa League tie on its head.
