This is their second consecutive victory after beating Leeds FC in the Premier League over the weekend. The win also eases pressure on manager Graham Potter.

Raheem Sterling scored the first goal just before the halftime break. Kai Havertz doubled their lead from the penalty spot, to seal their qualification.

“I’m not sure how I feel, there’s a lot of emotion in my body.” Graham Potter told UEFA.

“It was tense at the end, but I thought the boys were fantastic. They played really well, created some good chances and I’m just delighted for them.

“It’s great for everybody here.” He confirmed.

Raheem Sterling described their performance as “massive.”

“It was a massive performance.” Sterling spoke.

“We had to dig deep, and we took our chances. We haven’t had the luck recently and tonight we felt and knew, as a team, we could do it.”

Kai Havertz scored a penalty at the second attempt, after he hit the post with his first attempt. It had to be retaken because of encroachment from the opposition players.

“I was a bit nervous [for the retaken penalty] but I scored, and that’s the most important thing. I tried to wait, to look at the goalkeeper, and I saw that he was going to go to the same side again.” The German elaborated.
