Champions League: Late Drama in Knockout Round

Krstović nearly capitalized on a crucial moment during the tense Champions League knockout round playoff, executing a clever one-two with Zalewski that left him clear on goal. However, keeper Kobel read the danger and came rushing out of his box to make a crucial clearance, taking a knock for his efforts in the process.

The match continued with Atalanta launching a dangerous counter-attack as Samardžić danced in from the right before firing a low diagonal drive inches wide of the left-hand post, leaving Kobel grateful not to have been tested further.
