Steaua Bucharest's hopes of a home final end with Dutch defeat
Already 0-1 behind from the first leg in Bucharest, Steaua's task doubled before half time when Nacer Chadli (in picture, right) put the Dutch team a goal ahead, and 2 - 0 up on aggregate, after a mistake from Steaua keeper Ciprian Tatarusanu.
Steaua failed to make an impression in the second half until the 78th minute, when Stefan Nikolic got behind Twente's defense, forcing Twente keeper Nikolay Mihaylov to make a save. At the end of the 90 minutes, a disappointed Steaua bowed out of the competition, losing 1-0 on the night and 2-0 on aggregate.
