LOI in Europe 2022

[Jd2793]

Good result, I wonder was it a weaker AZ team after winning the tie in the first leg or if they just took the foot off the gas with no pressure on. Either way it?s still an impressive result for an Irish youth side against a Dutch one

az left a few at home from the first game alright. combo of that and being 5-0 up probably helped rovers. regardless a good few of them play with the II team so they've first team experience.

Went for a 3-0 scoreline in the UEFA ECL Predictor League. Be nice to be wrong but Molde are very good, won 11 straight in the league and Rovers just can?t seem to stay in these away games long enough against ?better? opposition to keep the match alive. The only hope for them is that Molde have not be as good in Europe in their first two games and maybe that is a trend that might continue. Also Rovers were very good the other night away to Sligo and if they can play like that again, who knows, they may make a game of it.

Many travel over for today's match?

If Rovers happen to go behind, can they stay in the game? The 3 previous tough away games have been a case of Groundhog Day.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Looking at the team you?d imagine the league is their priority

There's a lot less noise from when the draw was made...

At 6s and 7s here again. Poor defending

Rovers go behind away from home. Can they now stay in the game?

And I?m not even watching the rest of the match.

How people on here continue to defend the indefensible I find astounding, We have now witness 3 absolutely atrocious defensive performances on the road and now not even 10 minutes into this one and that?s the way they defend? They keep saying they?ve learnt their lessons but have they, it?s the same shot on a different day?It wasn?t even that good an attack, even basic defending would have been enough to stop that but sadly Rovers are incapable of even that it seems.

I think we all know how this dance goes?

I think that's as it should be . Give Byrne Burke gaffney 30 mins if the game is still alive later

[joey B]

Horrendous conditions,Rovers under the cosh here….

[paul_oshea]

U10s defending here at the minute

[ger121]

Step 1. Be still in the game at HT
Step 2. Covert a chance over 90 minutes

Anything else is a bonus as they are coming from a low base.

Can we give them credit for getting beyond half time this time? Game over.

That?s only due to us significantantly lowering the bar of what a LOI side is capable of. Just compare the Dundalk side in Europe 2016/2017 & 2020/2021 to this utter ****e (bare in mind Dundalk played against much better opposition than Rovers have this season).
