Hradec Králové 1-2 Panathinaikos result, stats and report

Cyriel Dessers scored twice, including a penalty deep into extra time, to send Panathinaikos through at the expense of a Hradec Králové side that competed hard but could not hold on when it mattered.

Panathinaikos looked in complete control after going two goals ahead in the second half, but Hradec Králové scored twice in the final two minutes to take a share of the spoils in Athens.

Beşiktaş did the basics right, kept a clean sheet, and made it three wins from three in the Conference League. Hradec Králové competed but never truly threatened.

Panathinaikos showed the composure and attacking intelligence of a side that knows how to win away from home, securing a 2-1 victory over CSKA 1948 Sofia in a match that stretched deep into extra time before its final shape was confirmed.

Panathinaikos bossed possession, territory, and attacks but could only muster a 1-1 draw against CSKA 1948 Sofia, with the Bulgarian side's clinical counter-punch cancelling out an early header in a frustrating Conference League qualifier.

Beşiktaş claimed a hard-fought Europa League victory in the Czech Republic, with a substitute's header ten minutes from time settling a match that told a more complex story than the scoreline suggests.

Panathinaikos have not conceded a clean sheet in five Conference League matches, and Borac Banja Luka have the firepower to make them pay. Thursday night in Athens could be a night of goals.

Hradec Králové host Panathinaikos in the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday 27 August 2026, and the data tells a story worth reading carefully. The Greek side travel to Bohemia having not lost once in their last four European outings, while the home side carry the weight of a single defeat and very little else to draw upon.
