End for the Macedonian teams in Europe: Shkendija eliminated without scoring a goal, Shkupi powerless in Portugal
Macedonian teams finished their performance in European football from the very beginning.
After the elimination of Sileks and Struga TL in the first qualifying round for placement in the Conference League, today Shkupi finished the performance in Europe and the biggest disappointment, the team of Shkendija.
The Macedonian champion Shkendija finished the performance in the qualifications without scoring a single goal.
Пo elimination by Mura in the qualifications for the Champions League with two defeats 0: 1 and 0: 5, Tetovo in the second round "transferred" to the qualifications for placement in the newly formed Conference League but also here suffered two defeats, from Estonian Riga. Shkendija in the return match that was played at the National Arena "Todor Proeski" lost with 0: 1 and with a total of 0: 3 ended the performance in Europe. The only goal scorer of the match was Mikael Soisalo in the 52nd minute.
Elimination from the European Championship without a goal will probably mean the dismissal of coach Ernest Gjoka.
The team of Shkupi, which was the only one to pass one qualification round, was powerless against the better Portuguese team Santa Clara. After the defeat in Skopje by 0: 3, tonight Shkupi lost with 0: 2, and the Portuguese team finished the job in the first half with the goals of Carvalho and Vilanueva.
