Motherwell tie is given go-ahead

Europa League

Motherwell's Europa League qualifier against Flamurtari will go ahead after the Albanians overcame entry visa problems in the UK.

Thursday's second qualifying second leg tie at Excelsior Stadium was in doubt as the Albanians tried to resolve the issue ahead of their trip to Scotland.

A Motherwell spokesman told BBC Scotland: "The trouble was all sorted out late last night.

"They will be arriving on Wednesday night. So the game will go ahead."

The Albanian side hold a 1-0 lead from the first leg, courtesy of Emir Strati's strike.
