The Buffalos have put themselves in a good position to qualify for the group stages of the UEFA Conference League after winning the first leg of their Play-off tie against Apoel FC of Cyprus. The game was a tight affair in the first half, with little by way of chances. Gent began to claim the upper hand after half time, and substitute Fofana broke the deadlock with thirteen minutes remaining. It looked like it would end 1-0, but Hong scored with a cracking volley deep into injury time, meaning the Buffalos take a two-goal cushion into the second leg in Cyprus.
