Lincoln Red Imps fall 3-0 to Mjällby in Champions League second‑qualifying round

In the first leg of the UEFA Champions League second‑qualifying round, Swedish champions Mjällby defeated Gibraltar's Lincoln Red Imps 3‑0. Goals came from Aki Samuelsen, Jacob Bergström and Alexander Johansson, giving Mjällby a comfortable aggregate lead.

Lincoln Red Imps goalkeeper Jaylan Hankins made a notable save, denying Abdoulie Manneh a clear‑cut chance, but his effort could not prevent the three‑goal deficit. The Gibraltarian side, who previously eliminated Inter Escaldes, will need to overturn the margin in the return fixture. Manager Juanjo Bezares retains most of his regular squad, and no new injuries were reported after the match.

The result puts Mjällby in a strong position to progress to the playoff stage, while Lincoln Red Imps will look to regroup for the second leg.
