BATE Borisov started their campaign in the 2026/27 European season with a draw. In the first match of the Conference League qualification, the Belarusian team drew away with Albanian club "AF Elbasani" — 1:1.
In the first half, the hosts possessed the ball more often, and in injury time, Ardit Nikaj opened the scoring.
In the second half, Yahor Rusakou, who came on as a substitute at halftime, restored parity in the 67th minute. This was the BATE player's debut in European competitions. After his powerful header, the ball went straight through the net.
The teams did not score any more goals until the end of the match. The match ended in a 1:1 draw.
The return leg will take place on July 16 in Sumgait, Azerbaijan — BATE's formally "home" stadium.
