Anderlecht 0-1 Shakhtar Donetsk (1-4 agg.): Eduardo sends visitor into quarterfinals

Eduardo's late goal sealed a 1-0 win at Anderlecht for Shakhtar, the Ukrainian side progressing to the quarterfinals 4-1 on aggregate.

Mircea Lucescu's Shakhtar Donetsk booked a spot in the quarterfinals of the Europa League after Eduardo's late goal sealed a 1-0 win at Anderlecht, putting the gloss on a 4-1 aggregate triumph.

The Ukrainians had Oleksandr Kucher sent off six minutes from time, but had always looked comfortable sitting on their lead and Kara Mbodji was given his marching orders soon after to level the scores on that front.
