Authors Notes: Will be following every European game throughout the season with the new layout. I have holidayed FM24 to the start of the European Qualifiers. It will be basic match reports until we get to the ¼ Finals of each tournament

 

So the European season has had a revamp for the 2024/25 season which I will go into soon. This means that the winners of the 2023/24 trophies will be know as the last of that format/

They are as follows:

UEFA Champions League: Manchester City 1-0 AC Milan (E.Haaland)

UEFA Europa League: Liverpool 2-0 BRG (L.Diaz, C.Gakpo)

UEFA Europa Conference League: LOSC 2-1 Arouca (N.Bentaleb, A.Ribeiro / M.Puche)

The usual qualifying rounds will be as normal with a two legged tie deciding who progresses, once we get to the League stage I will run through how that works.

So lets get started with this adventure

 

Authors Notes: Despite running the game with multiple leagues and a large database some games haven't thrown up match details

Twelve minutes into the tie Larne were reduce to ten men after N.Johnston was sent off for a two footed lunge. However on the 17th minute the ten men grabbed the lead as L.Bonis headed in from a brilliant cross. Eight minutes later it was two nil as L.Bonis slotted in from close range. Just after the half hour though Pyunik pulled a goal back with a well worked team move which split the ten men apart.

The second half was four minutes old when Larne regained their two goal advantage after L.Bonis completed his hat-trick with a fine effort. Straight from kick off though Pyunik pulled a goal back again as N.Hovhannisyan beat the offside trap and fired under the keeper. On the 69th minute Larne were reduced to nine men as A.Kennedy was sent off for a professional foul. Despite the numerical difference Pyunik couldn't draw level and Larne go into the second leg with a 3-2 lead

TNS v F.C.Santa Coloma

Within a minute the Welsh side took the lead as K.Uppington ran into the area unmark and fired under the keeper. TNS were all over Santa Coloma and on the 16th minute it was two nil with J.Williams heading from a corner. Three minutes later it was three nil as D.Evans curled the ball in from outside the area to give the keeper no chance of saving. On the 25th minute the home crowd were going mental as B.Young tapped in from two yards after a low cross beat the defence with far too much ease. With seven minutes remaining in the half M.Fream slotted in a low shot past the keeper to send the Welsh side into the half time interval five goals to the good.

The second half was all TNS but they seemed to have relaxed a lot and they only managed to add one more goal as A.Shone hit home from ten yards to give the Welsh side an unassailable lead going into the second leg

TNS 6-0 F.C.Santa Coloma K.Uppington 1, J.Williams 16, D.Evans 19, B.Young 25, M.Fream 38, A.Shone 81

Hamrun S v Qarabag

Qarabag controlled the game and on the 13th minute they came close to scoring but the keeper managed to block the effort with ease. Soon after they had another chance but yet again the keeper saved well. It was too easy for Qarabag however with six minutes remaining in the half Hamrun were awarded a penalty after a poorly timed challenge, W.D'Amato stepped up and gave Hamrun an undeserved lead. The lead though didn't even last a minute as straight from kick off Qarabag equalised with H.Abbasov doing the honours from close range.

The second half was again all Qarabag but they could only score the one goal as N.Mursalov gave them what turned out to be the winner. Hamrun still have a chance thanks to their keeper

Lincoln took the early lead as L.Lopez curled the ball in from outside the area. However St.Pat's reacted well and started to dominate the game and on the 20th minute R.Palmer levelled the scoreline with a low shot past the keeper. With four minutes remaining in the half St.Pat's took the lead as R.Keating hit home from close range after some woeful Lincoln defending.

The second half was ten minutes old when St.Pat's grabbed the third goal with a wonderful strike which gave the Lincoln keeper no chance of saving. The rest of the half was a midfield battle with no real threats on goal.

St.Pat's Athletic 3-1 Lincoln (GIB) R.Palmer 20, R.Keating 41, C.Kavanagh 55 / L.Lopez 4

Kobenhavn had the better start as on the 7th minute they went into the lead as M.Elyounoussi jinked through the defence and fired under the keeper. Twelve minutes later they had another chance with a long range effort which stung the fingers of the keeper. Just before the break Petrocub had their only chance of the game with a thunderous effort which beat the keeper but not the crossbar. The second half was all Kobenhavn but they could only add the one goal as R.Bardghji beat the offside trap and dinked the ball over the keeper. A good result for FC Kobenhavn

Dinamo grabbed the lead after a minute with S.Goodridge heading in past the Maccabi keeper. Maccabi reacted well and on the 23rd minute they levelled the scores as D.David jinked through the defence and rounded the keeper to fire into the empty net. However the home joy didn't last long as on the 35th minute K.Xulu fired in from the penalty spot after a rash challenge. The second half saw Maccabi coming out strong and just before the hour they levelled the tie again with D.David doing the honours from outside the box. The game continued to fro backwards and forwards and with three minutes remaining in the game T.Moloi slotted in the winner for Dinamo after Maccabi were caught on the counter attack

Omonoia v Neftci

Omonoia took the lead in the 13th minute after breaking the Neftci defence with a great team move. Soon after they had another chance but the striker fluffed the chance to score right in front of goal. On the stroke of half time Omonoia had yet another chance but again they sent the ball wide when it was easier to score. The second half was two minutes old when the away side Neftci equalised as S.Agayev curled the ball into the top corner from the edge of the area after the Omonoia kept backing off him. Omonoia piled on the forward pressure but they just couldn't find the back of the net and had to settle for the draw

Omonoia 1-1 Neftci G.Stavrou 13 / S.Agayev 47
