Ferencváros advances past Twente 4‑3 on aggregate in Europa League qualifier
Ferencváros entered the second‑leg Europa League qualifying match in Budapest with a 2‑1 away win over FC Twente. Coach Balázs Borbély had rotated his squad, fielding fresh players to protect the advantage.
In the return game the Hungarian side opened the scoring when Toon Raemaekers converted a penalty in the 22nd minute, and Lenny Joseph added a second before halftime. FC Twente reduced the deficit through Lucas Vennegoor of Hesselink, while Wout Weghorst equalised later in the second half. Mid‑fielder Philippe Rommens was sent off after a VAR review, leaving Ferencváros with ten men, but the team held on for a 2‑2 draw. The aggregate score of 4‑3 meant Ferencváros progressed to the third qualifying round, where they will face Polish side Górnik Zabrze.
