League of Ireland in Europe 2016

Whatever about our own leagues few hoods travelling to away game full as flutes, i'd be pretty sure the security in Windsor Park, especially it being brand new, Cork could have sold away with the tickets with little enough worry or at least if someone did cause grief they'd be promptly dealt with...

But with approx 300 min less of playing time than the other two. And the current goal leader has left for Leeds.

Häcken plays a 4-3-3 system where they also like to keep the ball on the ground as much as possible with a fast passing game.
Otherwise, they are most known for their transition-game, when they often use their wings alot, even the d. But their defensive game can be somewhat hollow at times.
And they play on an artificial ground since last year.

The Swedish league has also been on a break since the end of May. Häcken now start up again on saturday against Hammarby at home. So they might be a bit rusty at the moment.

Windsor Park is well used to having thousands of Glens fans, I think they'd be well able to manage a handful of Cork ones.

I was planning on going to the game in Tuners Cross, I assume there's no such messing for the home leg? Pay on the door?

No hassle at all. Tickets are moving fairly quickly but I would be surprised if it sold out.

St. Pats Starting XI

Clarke
O'Brien - Dennehy - Hoare - Bermingham
Cawley - Treacy
Byrne - Timlin - Dennehy
Fagan

Guessing this isn't being shown anywhere?

Oh dear. Pats 1-0 down.

It's not on anywhere that I can see.

Score one and the Luxembourgies still need two more.

But they might start getting the feeling they should have done more last week...

In the first half anyway. Esch were awful but still could easily have scored one or two in Richmond. Not surprised to see them ahead.

Half time out in Luxembourg now. UEFA updates showing one shot on target each; Pat's with three off target and Esch with one. No idea what that really means of course; seems an even enough game from the text commentary.

18 degrees out there at the moment apparently, so heat shouldn't be a factor anyway.

Liam Buckley has managed 12 away games in Europe and conceded in each of them.

1999/00	Zimbru Chisinau	[Mol]	0	5	LOSS
2002/03	Djurgårdens	[Swe]	0	2	LOSS
2003/04	Odra Wodzislaw	[Pol]	2	1	WIN
2003/04	Slovan Liberec	[Cze]	0	2	LOSS
2010/11	Marítimo	[Por]	2	3	LOSS
2012/13	IBV	[Ice]	1	2	LOSS
2012/13	Široki Brijeg	[Bos]	1	1	DRAW
2012/13	Hannover	[Ger]	0	2	LOSS
2013/14	Žalgiris	[Lit]	2	2	DRAW
2014/15	Legia Warsaw	[Pol]	1	1	DRAW
2015/16	Skonto	[Lat]	1	2	LOSS
2016/17	Jeunesse Esch	[Lux]	0	1	?

it would be an absolute travesty if Pats go out of this tie. Should have been put to bed within 30 minutes of kick-off at Richmond Park last week

Long way to go yet - though the UEFA updates showing a fairly quiet game still - but how many LoI clubs have been involved in a penalty shoot-out in Europe?

I can only think of Drogheda v Start (10-11), when I think Gartland missed twice in the shoot-out after it came all the way around to him again?

Has there even been any others? Can't think of any.

Looks like Pats saved it. 1-1.

get in:)

Yes, it was the only one. Wont be happening now :D

And I've reverse-jinxed it - Pat's equalise.

Should be the end of it now. 15 minutes for Esch to score twice.
