Velež embarrassed in Andorra!

(Patria) - Mostar's Velež experienced a true embarrassment in Andorra tonight.

The "Rođeni" were eliminated at the start of the Conference League qualifiers by the three-time Andorran champion - Inter Club d'Escaldes.

After a 1:1 draw at Grbavica, Inter defeated Velež 5:1 at home in Andorra la Vella and deservedly advanced to face Greece's AEK, writes Faktor.

Although the draw was very favorable for Velež, the "Rođeni" did not show on the pitch in 180 minutes of play that they were the better rival for the young club, founded only in 1991.

Velež could have taken advantage of an Inter defensive error in the second minute; the ball reached Haskić in the penalty area, who shot with his left foot on the first try, and the home goalkeeper saved.

Mlinarić tested the Inter goalkeeper in the 13th minute, but Munoz again saved his goal.

Hrkač was absent from the Velež squad due to injury, and Savić replaced him, but he also got injured after a head collision and had to leave the game in the 26th minute.

The Mostar team had a colossal chance to take the lead in the 39th minute when Austrian referee Alan Kijas pointed to the penalty spot after a duel between Šikalo and Feher.

Haskić placed the ball at the 11-meter mark but failed to hit the net. He hit the post.

Brutal punishment followed soon after. In the 44th minute, Lopez scored to give Inter the lead.

After that, the "Rođeni" seemed lost, on the ropes, and another ball ended up behind Hadžikić. Lopez scored again.

Oreč, Mujan, and Jevtović were on the field for Velež from the start of the second half, while Haskić, Suljić, and Halilović remained in the locker room.

One of the substitutes brought hope back to the Mostar team that they could achieve something in Andorra. Oreč reduced the deficit to 2:1 in the 53rd minute.

However, just three minutes later, Velež's defense was easily outplayed again, with a break on the right side. Lopez played a return pass, and Berlanga scored into the far corner with his left foot on the first try for 3:1.

Inter scored three goals in a European match for the first time in their history.

In the 84th minute, Domi scored the fourth goal for Inter, and Andreu scored in the second minute of stoppage time for the final 5:1.
