I saw only the first half of rovers but what I read on rte it sounded like a very different game to what I watched. Rov rs were in total control and shkupi looked extremely limited. What happened ?

Burke and McCann went off injured and we lost our shape for a while. Subs took too long to settle and they were pulling us around and finding space, particularly in midfield. Then they made a mess of it by getting a lad sent off. He probably should have already been off to be honest but it did them in and we dominated from there.

Alan Mannus still the best in the country thankfully.

*(on which note - where is a good place to park near Tallaght Stadium to make it easy to get to the M50 quickly after a game ? I don't want to park in The Square and spend forever trying to get out).
I park in the Square but always avoid the main entrance to the square and the main car parks. Go to the lower car park (that's nearest the M50) beside Argos. It has a different entrance and allows you to get in and get our far quicker.

As you're driving along the N81 towards Tallaght stadium, don't drive as far as the stadium, turn right onto the r113. Then take a left at the 1st roundabout, and again take the 1st left at the next roundabout. Now you're on the Belgrade Square S road. Take the 1st right turn off that and you're in the car park.

Is there an explanation as to why rte decided not to show the shamrock rovers game?

it is likely to be the more competitive (ie evenly matched) of the 3, not to mention a better chance for a victory (no offence to sligo or pats) and a feel good story for an irish club... in the preview for the shamrock rovers game they give the details and its a bit jarring after hyping up the match, they are not even showing it but instead the pats away leg (no offense to pats fans who im sure are happy its accessible). Is it a rights thing?
its also europa league still and not the lesser billing of ECL
https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2022...gerous-shkupi/
Turns out they picked the most competitive tie after all!

Great result for us last night, and especially the manner of the third goal after all the time-wasting the keeper did (and what a strike!) The tie is far from over yet, though, Bradley rightly being cautious after their second half display when they battered us for long spells.

Charlie Darwin

05/08/2022, 5:44 AM

Rovers now need to do something they have not done so far this year. Score away from home. They could do with Byrne and Burke next week.
Bradley said both should be fit buy McCann is a doubt, which given how he's been playing might be the biggest loss of all.

Charlie Darwin

Well done Pats and Rovers. The Pats result in particular was well-deserevd, but very unexpected. It spurred me to get a ticket for the home game next Thursday* Hard luck Sligo, but they're genuinely not a European-quality team and have been blessed up to this point in the competition.

*(on which note - where is a good place to park near Tallaght Stadium to make it easy to get to the M50 quickly after a game ? I don't want to park in The Square and spend forever trying to get out).
There's a car park in the Lidl/Woodies across the road but I don't know if it'd be open that late.

Great night for Pats. Wobbly but job done from Rovers. Poor aul Sligo, especially after last week's heroics. Past few weeks overall have been a great ad for the LoI, IMO. Pat's performance last evening was the best advertisement for the League of Ireland. The only problem is that the public might not have been tuning in to RT� News.

Shkupi kind of doing a Rovers there at the end.Good for Rovers to benefit from a late goal for a change. Hopefully they've finally learned their lesson.

So Bert has updated - we're up to 38th, having passed out Lithuania and Luxembourg tonight. Bosnia and Finland are a full win (0.250) ahead of us. HJK have one foot in the Conference League groups after today, so there's still plenty to play for.

Credit to Dundee United beating Alkmaar tonight, and to Viking Reykjavik beating Lech PoznanI don't get too caught up in coefficients. What's the next highest ranking to gain anything from?

You'd have said that before tonight's game but they never even came close. True. After tonight's defeat for them though, there will be a reaction. Most likely they'll score at least one.

This could obviously all blow up in our face in the second leg but have to say I was encouraged by how limited Sofia looked in terms of creating chances. They were awfully reliant on just lumping crosses in (even if their play up to that point was much slicker than ours), which when you've the likes of Redmond, Grivosti and even Cotter tucking in you'd rather be defending against.

Just delighted we've such a foothold going into next week. Haven't got fond memories of European ties in Tallaght (player protests, Legal Warsaw spring to mind) but hopefully we can make another big night happen.Pat's can take all the credit for how limited Sofia were on the night. The conditioning of the Pat's players seems to be of a high level. A lot of their players on last night's viewing would easily transition to Championship football across the water.
Pat's performance last night should offer encouragement to the league. On limited resources, they've assembled a team out perform a higher ranked European league opponent.

The underage leagues are really working plus a higher standard of overseas player. They're used to playing good football and it doesn't faze them but they have the tactical knowledge to sit in too. Helps you've had managers like Kenny, Bradley, Clancy, Higgins and Russell who believe in a European style of football.

The mentality is different too. Seems like, in general, back in the day (obvious exceptions aside) LoI teams were psychologically beaten and cowed before a ball was kicked, no matter how lowly the opposition. They would lose matches without even giving it a go. Feels like that's no longer the case.. Loi teams may (and will) get beaten, but they will give it a real go, playing proper football.. which is really all you can ask for.

So you're asking for 3 more wins and a draw this year...
That's a very big ask I'd say. There's still every chance our 3 teams remaining could all lose convincingly next week.
I've seen too many terrible LOI summers in Europe to ever get optimistic.

Not necessarily - Rovers have a handy enough run of games even if Sligo/Pat's lose. Even if they lose to Shkupi next week but go through, and then lose home and away in the play-off, they're still in the Conference groups and results there are worth double.

Yep - the caveat of course is that other countries will be getting to the groups more as well. Sides from Armenia, Lithuania and Moldova are already there for example; HJK from Finland are all but there, and in the Conference League play-offs, you have Linfield* against either RFS (Latvia) or Hibernians (Malta), and Shkupi* (North Macedonia) against either Ballkani (Kosovo) or Klaksvik (Faroes)

I don't think there's any difference in points between CL/EL/ECL groups, which is a little bit silly - means beating Liverpool away in the CL groups is worth the same as beating Linfield at home in the Conference League.

* - assuming neither overturns two-goal deficits against stronger teams

Oh, well since you put it like that stu.. whats all the fuss about. 🙄.

Another great occasion in the Home of successful LOI football.
Skhupi looked all over the shop in the first half, with Gaffney causing havoc to their back 4. Deserved lead into half time, but once McCann and Burke went off and dundalk secret agent towell appeared Rovers looked lost in midfield and they took control of the game.
Absolute carnage and bodies everywhere in the South Stand when GON scored in the last minute, it's those moments we football fans live for.
Tie is far from over, despite what some on here would have you believe, but at least we have something to grasp on to. Rovers will need to be more controlled in midfield if they want to see this through.

Maybe I'm imagining it, but over the past couple years of LoI in Europe it feels like Irish teams are less intimdated than they used to be and that the football is more expansive and ambitious. That was certainly the case for Pat's last night -- they dominated CSKA for long periods, were hungrier for the ball, and fairly fearless. Brilliant to see.
I think you DID imagine Pats 'dominating CSKA for long periods' - otherwise I agree.
Another factor might be players like Anang and Atakayi coming from outside the 'LOI football culture' and therefore not inheriting an inbuilt inferiority complex - and the feeling that disaster and defeat is the natural order of things.

I take your point that Pats �dominating� is putting it a bit strongly. But we went toe to toe with them and probably had as many good chances as they did. We passed the ball pretty well too. This wasn�t a 90 minute backs to the wall job which we might have seen in past years. The away leg against Mura was similar. Pats showed that they are well able to retain possession and create at this level. I think we�ll need to be more clinical next week, which has been our big failing this season. If we get chances next week we have to take them. Eoin Doyle guilty of a couple of bad misses last night ( albeit he was offside for one). Billy King really should have hit the target too when he put it over the bar.

pineapple stu

05/08/2022, 10:19 AM

Yeah, I think CSKA had more of the ball but Pat's created the better chances. It was even enough all told. Neither side dominated each other for long periods. Not to take away from the performance of course, but I think that's a more even view of it alright.

This 100% if we allow them play like they played in the second half we will be hanging on the whole match, even a goal after an hour will leave us 30 mins with them looking for one to go to extra time
If Jack is available he will be invaluable as it is a rare match when he doesn't either score or set a goal up and if we score one it makes it tough for them
That being said obviously we should be progressing but a 2 goal lead playing away in high temps is nowhere near done

Going on the 2nd half performance last night if Rovers concede early out there they could panic and are bang in trouble imho.

That being said a composed start / 1st half would probably be enough for them to steer the tie home.

I don't get too caught up in coefficients. What's the next highest ranking to gain anything from?

By design it's inside top 30. But they may have to do a bit of tweaking to accomodate previous years winners. But because of the way the EL is setup, as a closed shop, this ends up promoting 4-6 or more cup winners from ECL qualifier R1.

This year to remove russian teams, and handle the above, they hade to promote 12 CW.

Unlikely to have just much impact on ECL next season. If as expected they're low 20's by end of this season then that'd already be CLQ1 and ECLQ2 so **SNIP**strikethrough doesn't work, had numbers more or less right, but worded wrong cos had russians couming out of Q1 team **SNIP**

In terms of CL or rather the champions path it's a house of cards, and you'd be taking one from the bottom. I'm fecked if I can figure out how you split 40 whatever teams across three competitions with multiple chances while retaining the existing qualifing numbers

As I said previously the national co-efficient is about to become meaningless - either you're top thirty, and start a round later or you're not. To be top 30 you have to be in the groups. And as Stu points out at this stage any fecker can be be in the group. Whether by design or accident uefa seem to have made a competitive competition for mid to lower rank countries, at least as far as the qualifiers go.

edit - I'm lazy, and didn't count, but based it on ideal (72 Q1, 54 Q2, 7 Q3, 5[+3 EL losers] Q4) for 17 to group stage- total 138. All very back of the envelope

Think that means need to work out for 135 (with no other changes)
And 134 or 133 if take out teams starting in PO - there some chicanery with no. teams parachuted from ELQ3 being 2 or 3 depending on other factors

take 3 russian team from Q2
If no other rearranging, (need 135) then 6 teams from Q1 to Q2
- all teams to 29 and 5 CW (down to 34), or 3 teams down to 30 and CW to 32
If remove PO starting team (need 134)
move 4 teams from Q2 to Q3 and replace move same 6 teams Q1 to Q2

I think it's fair enough to describe last night as a dominant Pat's performance. They created by far the better chances and are unlucky not to be two goals to the good.
Sure Sofia had moments but Pat's always responded. Sofia failed to gain a strong foothold in the game. This was all because of Pat's brilliance on the night. Fully deserving winners of the first leg.

While I think Pats set up well, and dealt well with anything thrown at them, it would be wrong to suggest anything other than the fact their own goal was entirely against the run of play and was the product of a defensive howler by CSKA

Outside players definitely is a factor. I remember Brian Kerr bemoaning the lack of quality overseas players in the league a few years ago, saying how that was essential to progressing the league. But that was 6-7 years ago and we have had some very decent foreigners since.
Some are going a bit OTT here with the Pat's domination line tho.
Pat's didn't dominate CSKA. In fact CSKA dominated Pat's for a good 20 mins at the end of the 1st half.
That said, the rest of the game was very even. I think Pat's were outstanding, created the better chances and fully deserved the victory.

Thought StPats on balance deserved it, cska we�re just lumping (mostly) poor crosses into the area, whereas Pats created at least four good opportunities before they scored.
Thought Forrester was a little off, he fluffed one on the six yard line, Doyle also should have done better , but both had decent games still. Be a tough second leg but I fancy a home win

Its was a textbook away performance really. Measured in going forward when it was on, and keeping shape and discipline without the ball, took the chance when it arrived. CSKA will be a different beast in Dublin, there was probably an element of disrespect of LoI and underestimating St Pats which they wont do in the 2nd leg. I think they will be better with a noisy hostile away crowd than an impatient and critical home support that they probably fear more. Rustiness will be getting less and less with each game. If they rotated at all they will have their best 11 start now and the bit will be between the teeth so motivation wont be an issue for them.

While Id have had hope of a good result in the 1st leg before, Id be wary of making any bold predictions for the 2nd leg - in this instance the binning of away goals is a negative. I dont think it is hopeless for St Pats by any means, but they will have to have a St Pats performance of legendary proportions! I'd generally advocate for a positive approach to games but Clancy will have had a few sleepless nights trying to figure out how best to set up and maybe this is a roll the dice moment and prep for a siege - I dont remember too many times that this has actually worked i the end but it might be the most realistic way of getting through, might happen regardless of intentions, I dunno!

I think Rovers could have an easier time in NM than their 1st leg. Shkupi are as balanced as Ballotelli Joey Barton love child, Rovers can exploit that. A decent ref and a masterclass in the dark arts and they will lose the plot. Rovers are more than capable of a repeat of Hibs Malta away and keep them at arms length. Its a game that could suit Towell with his engine and close down the shots from distance. If Byrne is available it changes things a bit and a few more risks can be taken but only a properly fit Byrne. There's another spike in high temperatures forecast for the continent next week so managing energy levels could be an issue and really then playing a possession game is the only way.

Cue St Pats hammering CSKA and Rovers well beaten by Shkupi now....

Ya burke was involved in everything good in the 40+ mins I saw. And the team in general were doing all the right things and when the pen scored running to grab the ball, that was all what you'd have hoped for. Attacking intent and playing keep ball and when it went to 2-0, I thought that's it now when I land they'll be 3 or 4 goals in front. There was nothing I saw from Skhupi to warrant anything else. Looks like Rovers did what other teams to do them in the first legs away from home, and then Skhupi did a rovers and found their feet but unlike rovers scored a goal. That sending off could be crucial yet.

Lets hope Skhupi don't do a rovers now next week, but it sounds like they are more than capable of doing that. All to play for still and extra time is definitely a serious possibility.

Cska certainly didnt look like a team with serious firepower, they looked fairly blunt. They also looked like a team that were struggling with fitness. They clearly underestimated Pats and they looked like a team that would have finished 30 points behind Ludogorets not 12.

They'll be a better outfit next week but I wouldnt be surprised to see ROvers game go to ET and this finish in the 90.

Good to see McCann has proven his undoubted quality. Watched him in Tallaght v Derry and he was the worst player on the pitch by a huge distance. I always say you can't write off a player until getting a run of games under their belt especially in their preferred positions.

Yeah exactly, especially with a Center Mid. Out of all the positions they've the highest improvement potential with a run of games.

Was eager to see him playing regularly seeing as he's played his whole career at Championship and MLS level.

That said, it doesnt always apply. The more games Zahebo played for Dundalk last year the worse he got! He still clubless?

..

Pats have been set up exactly the same way for all 3 European ties - 3-4-2-1 - with the same personnel too except that Timmermans played the first game then Lennon took the place, and Billy King came in for Mark Doyle who was suspended after the first game. It may appear defensive (and the only goal they've conceded was a giveaway from their own throw-in) but in all three games against higher-ranked opposition they have created the greater number of chances. So I don't expect any change in formation, personnel or approach from yesterday.
