A surprising situation took place in the 1st round of Europa League qualification, which ended tonight. Two teams that do not play in the top leagues of their countries managed to get through to the 2nd round.

Polish Wisła Kraków, who won the Polish Cup and finished tenth in the second division, managed to knock out Kosovo club Llapi. Wisła won 2-0 in their home match, while away today they won 2-1.

Also qualifying for the next round were Romanian Cup winners Corvinul Hunedoara, who also play in their country's Second League. Corvinul sensationally defeated Hungary's Paks 4-0 away in their first match, but lost 0-2 at home.

This happened for the first time in the history of the Europa League.

In the 2nd round of qualification, Wisła will play against Rapid Vienna, while Korwinul Honedoara will face Croatian Rijeka.
