SC Freiburg and ÖFB team defender Philipp Lienhart have confidently reached the semi-finals of the Europa League. The Germans followed their 3-0 home win over Celta Vigo with a 3-1 (2-0) win in Spain on Thursday and are in the top four in the European Cup for the first time. Igor Matanovic (33rd) and Yuito Suzuki (39th, 50th) scored against the hopeless home team, Lienhart played through. In the semi-finals (April 30th/May 7th) Freiburg will face Sporting Braga or Betis Sevilla. (APA, April 16, 2026)
