Qabala earn first ever point against PAOK

Azerbaijan side Qabala have earned their first ever Europa League point with a 0-0 draw against Greek side PAOK Salonika.

Qabala went close early on, with Ferreira Richardinho seeing his shot from outside the box saved in the bottom corner by Robin Olsen before Ricardo Costa put a chance for PAOK wide.

Richardinho went close again with a free kick just before half time, but the Brazilian put his effort over the bar.

PAOK started the second half the brighter, with Erik Sabo and Garry Rodrigues forcing good saves from Dmitri Bezotosny.

The Greek team piled on the pressure in added time, with Rodrigues, Jairo and Robert Mak all coming close in the final stages, but Qabala held on for a draw in the club's first Europa League group game.
