FC Iberia 1999
Jagiellonia Białystok
Jagiellonia Białystok advanced from their Europa League play-off tie after coming from behind to beat FC Iberia 1999 2-1 in Tbilisi, with a goal from Anders Klynge 20 minutes from time proving the decisive blow. The Polish side took an early lead through Jesús Imaz's penalty on 31 minutes, but Iberia almost immediately levelled through Zviad Natchkebia's finish four minutes later, assisted by Nika Sikharulashvili — a rapid swing in momentum that gave the hosts belief. Despite Iberia dominating possession at 62% and generating 69 dangerous attacks compared to Jagiellonia's 47, it was the visitors who showed the greater clinical edge: Jagiellonia created two big chances to Iberia's none, and those moments mattered. Klynge's 70th-minute finish, set up once again by Imaz, settled the tie and sent the Białystok side through — a result that underlines their ability to absorb pressure and strike with precision on the road.
