Feyenoord Rotterdam delivered a spirited comeback to defeat Como 3-2 in the Champions League on Wednesday, extending their winning streak to four matches across all competitions. With Oussama Targhalline part of the Rotterdam side, the Dutch club showed the determination and attacking quality needed to overcome an early setback and claim a valuable European victory.
The result also maintained Feyenoord’s remarkable unbeaten record at home, while Como were left to reflect on a narrow defeat after making an encouraging start to their continental campaign.
Como Strike First, but Feyenoord Respond
The visitors took the lead in the 18th minute, with Assane Diao finishing a quick attacking move inside the penalty area. The early goal put Feyenoord under pressure, but the hosts responded almost immediately.
Just two minutes later, Gjivai Zechiel restored parity with a precise strike from the edge of the box. The equaliser brought Feyenoord back into the contest and ensured the sides went into the break level after an energetic opening period.
Hadj Moussa Turns the Game Around
Feyenoord emerged from half-time with renewed intent, and their pressure soon produced a breakthrough. Seven minutes into the second half, Anis Hadj Moussa unleashed a powerful shot to put the Dutch side ahead for the first time.
The hosts continued to push for a decisive third goal, eventually extending their advantage in the 81st minute. After a shot struck the post, Como goalkeeper Robert Sánchez was credited with an own goal, leaving the visitors with a difficult task in the closing stages.
Como refused to give up, and Anastasios Douvikas found the net in stoppage time to reduce the deficit. However, the late goal came too late to prevent Feyenoord from securing all three points.
Targhalline and Feyenoord Build European Momentum
For Oussama Targhalline, the victory marked another step in Feyenoord’s European campaign as the team demonstrated the resilience required to recover from a difficult start. Although Como struck first, the Rotterdam side responded quickly and took control after the interval to secure the win.
The Moroccan midfielder will take encouragement from Feyenoord’s growing momentum, with the club now recording four consecutive victories across all competitions.
Their continued strength at home provides a solid foundation as they look to build on this result and strengthen their position in the Champions League.
