*FWEEEEEEE*

The referee blew the whistle that signaled the start of the second leg of the Europa League semi-final battle between Rosenborg BK and SL Benfica. The cheers around the stadium rose to thunderous heights within an instant as Nicki Nielsen, Rosenborg's center-forward, kicked off the game by passing the ball back into his midfield.

The match was finally underway, and the players of both teams quickly arrayed themselves into their respective playing formations as they tried to outmaneuver one another.

On the side of Rosenborg, there was almost no change to the squad that played Benfica away in Lisbon. Daniel Örlund, Rosenborg's experienced and ever-reliable number-1, was in goal, while the defense comprised the four players - Mikael Dorsin, Tore Reginiussen, Yerry Mina, and Eric Bailly.
