After last year's unsuccessful appearance in the Champions League group stages, Midtjylland will be determined to progress in this season's Europa League.

The Danish side were minnows in a group containing six-time European Cup winners Liverpool, Ajax and Atalanta, and unsurprisingly managed just two points, leaving them bottom of the group and without the consolation prize of a spot in the Europa League.

They qualified for the competition this year, after falling at the third qualifying round for the Champions League, but picked up just two points from their opening three games.

Their prospects within the group changed after their most recent game, however, thanks to a crucial 1-0 win away at Red Star Belgrade - a Guelor Kanga own goal in the 56th minute proving to be the difference.

在经历了去年欧冠小组赛的失利后，米德日兰决心在本赛季的欧罗巴联赛中取得进步。

在与六次欧锦赛冠军利物浦、阿贾克斯和亚特兰大同组的比赛中，丹麦队显得微不足道，不出所料，他们只拿到了2分，这让他们成为小组垫底的一员，也没有获得欧罗巴联赛的晋级资格。

在欧冠资格赛第三轮失利后，他们获得了今年的参赛资格，但在开场的三场比赛中只获得了两分。

然而，在最近的一场比赛后，他们在小组中的前景发生了变化，多亏了客场1-0战胜贝尔格莱德红星队的关键比赛，坎加在第56分钟的乌龙球证明了他们的不同。
