NK Celje 2:2 KS Egnatia — Match Report

Gary RedknappGary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT
NK Celje and KS Egnatia played out a remarkable 6-3 draw in the UEFA Champions League Qualification Round 2. The match featured a flurry of goals, with the lead changing hands multiple times across a contest that extended deep into added time.
Egnatia struck first through Darko Hrka in the 21st minute, but Mario Kvesić equalised for Celje just before the half-hour mark. Kvesić then put Celje ahead in the 97th minute, only for Geralb Smajli to level again for Egnatia in the 114th. Two quick goals from Yaya Dukuly and Ivan Ćalušić at the 990th minute gave Celje a 4-1 lead at that point, though the final scoreline suggests further goals that are not recorded in the timeline.
Mario Kvesić was the standout performer with a brace (34', 97'), while the match saw seven yellow cards, booked to Papa Daniel, Yaya Dukuly, Fernando Medeiros, Ildi Gruda, Guillem Jaime, Alpha Dionkou, and Artemijus Tutyškinas.
