Apollon Limassol qualifies for the third round of the Conference League
Apollon Limassol secured a commanding victory against Dila Gori on July 28, 2026, winning 3-0 in the second leg at the Alphamega Stadium in Limassol. Following a 4-0 win in the first leg in Georgia, the team advanced to the third qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League with a definitive 7-0 aggregate score. This match marked a historic occasion for the club, as it was their first European competition home game held in Limassol after a 16-year absence, attended by approximately 5,300 fans.
Brandon Tomas opened the scoring in the 21st minute, with Gary Rodrigues and Espriche adding two more goals in the second half to seal the win. Despite the comfortable result, manager Hernan Losada emphasized the need for continued focus and squad balance. Notably, players Philip Kuhn and Gustavo Assuncao were excluded from the match squad as a precaution for rest.
Apollon Limassol is now waiting to determine their next opponent, which will be the winner of the tie between Brann and Universitatea Cluj. The first leg of that matchup ended 2-2. The next round matches are scheduled for August 5 and August 11, with Apollon playing the first leg away.
