Egnatia has started its adventure in the Champions League with a victory.

In the first match against the Icelandic team Breidablik, the team from Rrogozhina triumphed with a minimum score of 1-0, thanks to a goal scored in extra minutes by Ildi Gruda, a striker who had signed with the club just a few days earlier.

The Rrogozhina team started the match badly after losing a starter in the first minutes, Edison Ndreca left due to injury and was replaced by new signing Anio Poçi.

In the 18th minute, Egnatia had a very good chance to score, but first Regi Luskja and then Kastriot Selmani were not accurate. The first half, although dominated by Edlir Tetova's team, ended in a goalless draw.

The start of the second half was again about the Rrogozhina team, who wasted several chances with Bakayoko, failing to convert them into goals. In the 74th minute, Poçi came very close to scoring, but his strong shot was stopped by the crossbar.

The hard work of the Rrogozhina team would be rewarded in the extra minutes, where they found the goal with new signing Ildi Gruda. Shkodrani, after receiving a long ball from the defense, sent it into the net, lifting the entire stadium.

Egnatia wins 1-0 and goes with a one-goal advantage in the return leg, after a week in Iceland.
