Two clean sheets, a shootout defeat

Universitatea Cluj drew 0–0 away to Dynamo Kyiv on 9 July and 0–0 at home on 16 July. Dynamo won the deciding penalty shootout 4–2.

Cluj's clean sheet survived disallowed goals and the bar

The goalless home return was not without danger. Dynamo had two finishes disallowed for offside, and Ponomarenko's header struck the bar. Cluj nevertheless reached the shootout without conceding a valid goal in either leg.

Dynamo won the penalties 4–2. For Cluj supporters, the distinction is specific: two clean sheets kept the tie alive, but the shootout ended the Europa League route. These are Universitatea Cluj's matches, separate from Universitatea Craiova's later qualifiers.

An older UEFA Cup entry

UEFA's competition archive records Universitatea Cluj in the first round of the 1972/73 UEFA Cup and the first qualifying round in 2026/27. Those labels come from different competition structures.
