Roma continued to put in an impressive performance, and earned a 3-0 win over Finnish side HJK. Lorenzo Pellegrini, Paulo Dybala and Andrea Belotti were on target for Jose Mourinho as they claimed their first win in the Europa League this season over HJK who were a man down. 

One of the upsets of the night saw Hungarian side Ferencvaros claim a 1-0 win over Monaco. Balint Vecsei scored the only goal of the game in the 79th minute to earn all three points for his side. 

Lazio, on the other hand, suffered a 5-1 defeat against Midtjylland of Denmark. Their group poses an interesting case, with all four teams having three points each.
