Fataï was instrumental in AZ Alkmaar's dominant 4-0 victory over Ararat Armenia in the Europa League, scoring twice and providing an assist. This performance marked a notable achievement for Fataï, who had only scored two goals in all competitions prior to this match, none in the Europa League. The win propelled AZ Alkmaar to eighth place in their group with six points.
The match also saw Dion Drena Beljo score a brace for the Croatian side, but it wasn't enough to secure a result.
Other Israeli-connected players also featured in European action. Muhamed Abu Fani came on as a substitute for Red Star Belgrade in their 2-2 draw with Copenhagen. In another match, Kings Kangwa, a former Hapoel Be'er Sheva player, scored a spectacular free-kick goal for Panathinaikos in their 5-1 rout of Kairat, marking the Greek team's first consecutive European campaign wins since the 2007/08 season.
