It wasnât just the Europa League taking place tonight, as we found out the four semi-finalists for the Europa Conference League.
Hereâs what went down.
Scorers: Abraham 5â˛, Zaniolo 23â˛, 29â˛, 49â˛.
NicolÜ Zaniolo scored a hat-trick as Roma shrugged off a first leg defeat to thrash Bodø/Glimt.
Tammy Abraham gave JosĂŠ Mourinhoâs side the lead before a stunning team move saw Lorenzo Pellegrini send Nicolò Zaniolo through on goal to slide the ball through the legs of Nikita Khaykin.
Zaniolo added a second moments later as Nicola Zalewski burst away from a Bodø/Glimt corner before setting up Zaniolo to chip over Khaykin.
The 22-year-old completed his hat-trick at the start of the second half to set up a meeting with Leicester City in the semi-finals.
Scorers: Payet 34â˛.
Scorers: TraorĂŠ 14â˛; Dessers 2â˛, 59â˛, Sinisterra 78â˛.
Scorers: Zahavi 27â˛; Maddison 77â˛, Pereria 88â˛.
Leicester City came from behind to beat PSV Eindhoven and reach the UEFA Europa Conference League semi-finals.
The hosts were given a gift to take the lead in the 27th minute, when Youri Tielemans gave the ball away outside his own area before it worked itâs way to Eran Zahavi to slot into the far bottom corner from a tight angle.
Brendan Rodgersâ side almost equalised immediately with James Maddisonâs goal-bound shot deflecting over the head of goalkeeper Yvon Myogo but denied by the overhead kick clearance of Jordan Teze.
Substitute Patson Daka had a golden chance to equalise for Brendan Rodgersâ side when he was sent through on goal but his shot flashed just wide of the far post.
Thankfully for Daka, Maddison pulled his side level in the 77th minute. The 25-year-old arrived late in the box to smash Ayoze Perezâs cut-back into the top corner to level the tie.
And just as it looked as if we were heading to extra time, the Foxes found their winner.
Daka saw his shot parried by Myogo but it only went as far as the on-rushing Ricardo Pereria who fired home the rebound to silence the Philips Stadium and book Leicesterâs place in the final four.
