​Real Sociedad cruised into the Europa League's last 16 despite a wild second leg against FC Midtjylland

Real Sociedad cruised into the Europa League's last 16 despite a wild second leg against FC Midtjylland.  A dominant start saw Brais Mendez and Luka Sucic score early, giving Sociedad a 2-0 lead.  Midtjylland fought back, however, with goals from Adam Buksa and Dario Osorio leveling the score.  Sucic struck again before halftime to restore Sociedad's advantage.

The second half saw Midtjylland's Dani Silva sent off in the 70th minute, effectively ending their hopes.  Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty shortly after, and substitute Orri Oskarsson added a final goal in stoppage time, sealing a 5-2 victory (7-3 on aggregate) for Real Sociedad at the Reale Arena.  They now await either Manchester United or Tottenham Hotspur in the next round.

Despite a quiet and ultimately unsuccessful match, Real Betis secured their spot in the UEFA Conference League's round of 16.  Their three-goal advantage from the first leg proved enough, even though they lost the second leg.  A late goal from Archie Brown gave the visitors the win on the night.  Adding to Betis's woes, Vitor Roque received a red card following a VAR review for a bad foul on Brown.  This means Roque will miss the first leg of the next round against either Chelsea or Vitoria de Guimaraes.
