On 26 August 1998, Vasara scored a goal for HJK against Metz, in the 2nd leg of the UEFA Champions League play-off round, helping his team to get a 1–1 away draw (2–1 on aggregate) and qualify to the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, for the first time in the history of the club.[1]
Vasara was selected as the Veikkausliiga manager of the Month for June 2018 while managing Veikkausliiga side Honka.[2]
Vasara worked as a manager of Honka for seven seasons, until Honka declared for bankruptcy at the end of the 2023, and he was released. Vasara was subsequently named the manager of a fellow Veikkausliiga side Inter Turku, signing a two-year deal with the club, starting in 2024.[3][4][5]
