HOW CAN FENERBAHÇE ADVANCE IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE?

Fenerbahçe is facing Lille in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. With Fenerbahçe falling behind 1-0 in the match, if the game had ended with that score, the yellow-navies would have bid farewell to the Champions League with any draw or defeat in their home match. However, as the match ended 2-1, the situation remains that any draw or defeat in the home leg will result in elimination.

For Fenerbahçe to take the match to extra time, they must win by at least a 1-goal margin in the return leg to be played in Istanbul, while a victory by two or more goals will see them advance directly.
