A tight tie saw Brondby bring home a 1-0 advantage over Piteå which they doubled through Nicoline Sorensen’s 72nd-minute goal but a tense finished was ensured when Kamilla Karlsen put through her own net two minutes from time.
Minsk are the first Belarusian side to win a round of 32 tie, after two-goal Emueje Ogbiagbevha and Yuliya Duben scored in the last quarter o an hour for a 3-1 success in Zurich to progress 4-1 overall.
Breidablik took a narrow 3-2 lead to Sparta Praha but increased their advantage with Berglind Thorvaldsdóttir’s second-half effort.
Atlético Madrid were also defending a 3-2 scoreline and Spartak Subotica gave them real worries as Violeta Slović missed a penalty but Kayla Adamek opened the scoring past Sari van Veenendaal. Substitue Kylie Strom struck minutes from time to restore Atlético’s aggregate lead.
PSG were effectively already through after a 1st leg 7-0 win in Braga but the Portuguese side did manage a goalless draw in the French capital with Marie Hourihan between the sticks.
The Last 16 draw will be made live on uefa.com at 12:30 UK time on Monday 30 September.
