Match Report
Ilves reached the next round of Conference League qualifying by beating Differdange 3-1 in Tampere, but the story of the night was a wild finish that saw three players sent off inside a single minute.
Sébastien Thill put Differdange ahead right before halftime, but Ilves hit back fast. Yiandro Raap equalized in the 57th minute, Jardell Kanga converted a penalty in the 68th, and Roope Riski added a third in the 75th to complete the turnaround.
Minutes after scoring, Raap himself was shown red, and the game boiled over as Juan Bedouret and Gustavo Vintecinco also picked up second-half red cards amid a mass confrontation. Bamba Abdoul Goudouss and Ville Kumpu were also booked.
The result sends Ilves through on aggregate after the first leg finished goalless, while Differdange's European adventure ends despite briefly leading in Tampere.
