AUG 3, 2016 LISTEN

Rosenborg goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey picked three late goals from his net on Tuesday evening when his side  lost 3-0 at APOEL Nicosia in the third qualifying round second leg tie.

The Ghana international goalkeeper was in post for the entire 90 minutes of the game hoping to claim a ticket with his Norwegian side to the play-off stage of the 2016/17 Uefa Champions League competition.

However, Apoel Nicosia produced a stunning Champions League qualifying victory as three injury-time goals knocked out Kwarasey's team and sent the Cypriots through to the playoff round. Read more: Ghana goalkeeper makes Rosenborg debut in 6-0 thrashing

Trailing 2-1 from the first leg in Norway, Apoel looked to be heading out as the game entered stoppage time.

But Giannis Gianniotas, Brazilian Vander and Argentine Tomas De Vincenti, the third coming in the ninth minute of time added-on, struck to snatch a 3-0 second-leg win and shatter the Norwegian league leaders and domestic champions.

The match featured eight bookings including three in injury time.
