After 1-1 in the first meeting, Elfsborg advances with 3-1 overall.
What a fun match. We are stable throughout the match, they don't create much, says Ahmed Qasem in Sportbladet's broadcast.
Michael Baidoo initiated Elfsborg's goal scoring in the 68th minute, when he took advantage of a mistake in Rijeka's defense and placed the ball in goal.
With just over ten minutes left, Ahmed Qasem extended to 2-0 after a fine attack by the home team.
I think I'm doing a good job. The team helps me, and I help the team today. It's fun to give back to the supporters after my red card in the previous match (against Gais), says Qasem.
In the final qualifying stage for the Europa League, Elfsborg will face Norwegian Molde.
With the advancement to the playoffs, the Borås club has at least secured play in the autumn's Conference League. There, Elfsborg will play if they lose in the final qualifying stage for the Europa League.
