Vllaznia Shkodër left Iceland with a dramatic 2-2 first-leg draw with Valur as the sides vie for a Europa Conference League second qualifying round meeting with St Mirren.

Winger Guðmundur Andri Tryggvason gave the Reykjavic side a 12th-minute lead, but the Albanian visitors replied 10 minutes later through midfielder Ardit Krymi.

Despite Albania midfielder Ardit Deliu being sent off with eight minutes remaining, substitute winger Kevin Dodaj put 10-man Vllaznia ahead almost immediately after the restart.

However, another substitute, former Empoli youth midfielder Lúkas Logi Heimisson, equalised nine minutes into stoppage time.
