Heart of Midlothian Kilmarnock

Thursday review

Round-up of this evening's UEFA play-off matches

Heart of Midlothian and Kilmarnock both conceded goals deep into stoppage as they went down to narrow away defeats in their first-leg matches tonight.

Hearts were set for an impressive 0-0 draw in the Europa League against Viktoria Plzen in the Czech Republic but lost out to a Daniel Oyegoke own goal in the 96th minute.

Kilmarnock were up against a Copenhagen side who reached the last 16 of the Champions League last season and lost 2-0 in their Conference League play-off.

Derek McInnes' side were only 14 minutes away from a earning a goalless draw in Denmark but Kevin Diks converted a penalty and Rasmus Falk struck at the end of added time.

The second legs of both matches take place next Thursday, August 29.
