# Super Nova beat Cliftonville to reach second round of UEFA Youth League
SK Super Nova have advanced to the second round of the UEFA Youth League after beating Cliftonville 1-0 in Riga to secure a 1-0 aggregate victory in their first-round tie.

Gorgijs Bombāns scored the only goal from the penalty spot early in Wednesday’s second leg at Jānis Skredelis Stadium. The teams had drawn 0-0 in Belfast on 16 September.

The Latvian U-17 champions will face Sweden’s Hammarby in the second round. It is Super Nova’s debut in the competition and only the second time a Latvian side has progressed through a round. The Youth League’s domestic champions’ path will join the Champions League clubs’ path in a unified knockout phase next February.
