Istanbul's Beşiktaş on Thursday advanced to Europa League group stage playoffs after having eliminated LASK Linz of Austria on away goals.

LASK Linz defeated the Istanbul powerhouse 2-1 in the UEFA Europa League 3rd Qualifying Round second leg match in Linz late Thursday.

However, the Austrian said failed to sideline the Black Eagles as Beşiktaş toppled LASK Linz 1-0 in first leg match.

Meanwhile, another Turkish team, Medipol Başakşehir, was eliminated after suffering a defeat to English side Burnley 1-0 in extra time.

In the first leg last week, Medipol Başakşehir drew against Burnley 0-0 in Istanbul.
