Now it sets up a mega game for both clubs.” Dereck Kutesa fired the home side into a first half lead. But James Tavernier levelled five minutes into the second half to seal a 3-2 aggregate win . And last night Gers skipper Tav confessed: "The most important thing is we're through. “We're disappointed not to get a clean sheet, but we're happy to get to the next round.

But I was much happier in the second. “It was a really warm night with a dry pitch and the crowd was up after the goal. “But I thought we showed fantastic character.

Servette boss Rene Weiler was left to rue his side’s missed chances - with Gers keeper Jack Butland producing two outstanding saves. Weiler said: “We had some good chances to score at least two goals . “At this level you have to take your chances.
