Rosenborg will meet Wednesday and Wednesday's Scottish club Celtic in the second qualifying round of the Champions League. But before the two important regulations are played, UEFA withdrew the opponents of the winning team in the next round to their headquarters in Nyon.
If Rosenborg wins both colonies together, they must travel to Greece to meet AEK Athens.
Greek Serie Masters
AEK Athens won the Greek series last year with six points and entered the third qualifying round for the Champions League. The Greek team is made with the lowest points of the teams that are supposed to pass in the third qualifying round.
But in practice, the draw was one of the worst that Rosenborg had the opportunity to obtain.
If Rosenborg wins against Celtic, it will be the home game on August 7th or 8th and the away game on Tuesday August 14th.
Initially, Rosenborg had too few points to rank, but if they beat Celtic, they took their place in the seeded group.
This means that they have not managed to meet the strongest qualifying rounds, such as FC Salzburg, Ludogorets, Legia Warsawa and FK Astana.
In the group as Rosenborg, there were also teams like BATE Borisov, Dinamo Zagreb, Sherrif Tiraspol, Malmo and Red Star Belgrade.
Drawing in Europa League
If Rosenborg loses for Celtic, the third round of the European League awaits the troops. Then it's Irish Cork who becomes opponent.
Cork City is ranked as the worst Rosenborg team. Cork finished second in the Irish league behind Dundalk, while Rosenborg won the qualifications last year.
Rosenborg travels to Ireland on August 9, while returning to Lerkendal on August 16. The coach of APOEL, Cyprus, is the worst draw that Rosenborg can get because the coaches have bad memories after the overtime loss in the third qualifying round of the Champions League in 2016. But they have no return on the Mediterranean island.
All third round matches for Molde, Sarpsborg and Lillestrøm will be withdrawn at 14:00 on Monday.
Lillestrøm will meet the Austrian LASK in the second round. Molde meets Albanian Lake, and Sarpsborg meets Swiss St. Gallen.
