Europa League bracket 2022-23: How semifinals are shaping up as quarterfinal play wraps up

UEFA Europa League quarterfinal play wraps up Thursday with all eight teams in action at the same time. Two of the matchups are tied on aggregate heading into the second leg, while the other two are just one-goal differences. That makes for an exciting second leg where any number of possibilities exist for the semifinal stage.

Here's a look at which teams have qualified for the semifinal round and how the matchups will look.

Who is in Europa League semifinal round?

TEAMS QUALIFIED: NONE

Quarterfinal results

Despite Roma putting up 17 shots in the opening leg, it was Feyenoord who got the lone goal of the match. The Dutch side just need a draw to advance to the semifinal round.

Florian Wirtz rescued the opening leg for the Bundesliga side with a late goal in the first leg, leaving everything to play for in the second leg. Union Saint-Gilloise is in a heated domestic league battle as well, so the focus might not completely be there.

Unfortunately, Man United put two own goals in the net as well to level this tie heading into the second leg. It's all to play for, which is when unexpected events can have an outsized impact on the game.
