Sabah clinches Champions League debut after dramatic extra-time win over Hapoel Beer-Sheva

Bodo/Glimt advanced easily after a 3-0 victory over NEC Nijmegen, while LASK reduced a 5-0 first-leg loss to Celtic by scoring five unanswered goals, though Celtic still moved to the Europa League. In the other tie, Sabah, founded eight years ago, faced Israeli champions Hapoel Beer-Sheva, who had won the first leg 2-1. A stoppage-time goal by Tellur Mutallimov forced extra time, and Gabon striker Orphe Mbina followed with a header, with Joy-Lance Mickels completing the comeback.

The match ended 5-2, giving Sabah a 6-4 aggregate win and a debut in the Champions League proper. Celtic’s drop and the upcoming draws in Monaco will finalize the 36-team field.
