AZ
Noah
AZ completed a comprehensive 4-0 victory over Noah to advance 4-1 on aggregate in the Europa Conference League. The Dutch side dominated from the opening minutes, with Ro-Zangelo Daal striking early from close range after Kees Smit's initial effort was blocked. Sven Mijnans proved to be the standout performer, netting twice in devastating fashion - first converting from a set piece just before halftime, then adding a third goal nine minutes into the second half with assistance from Daal. Despite earning a yellow card for a foul, Mijnans' clinical finishing effectively ended any hopes of a Noah comeback. Substitute Isak Jensen capped off the rout with a fourth goal in the dying minutes, as AZ's attacking fluency and Noah's defensive frailties became increasingly apparent throughout the contest.
