Sampdoria 1-2 PSV Eindhoven

PSV Eindhoven came from behind to beat Sampdoria 2-1 and book their place in the last 32 of the Europa League.

Giampaolo Pazzini put Samp ahead in the first half at the Luigi Ferraris stadium but Ola Toivonen equalised in the 51st minute before scoring his second at the death.
