After back-to-back disappointments against OGC Nice and Anderlecht, Real Sociedad secured their first Europa League victory of the season in Belgrade. Jon Pacheco and Sergio Gomez scored for the visitors, while Dor Turgemann netted a late consolation for Maccabi Tel Aviv, who also had Osher Davida sent off.

Real Betis 1-1 FC Kobenhavn
