Pat Morley says on the basis of their second half performance City deserve to win the game.
And RTÉ said they were streaming all Champions League games this season :rolleyes: though fair play for the live coverage :p
Lordan on for Behan, 92nd min.
1-0 Cork, final score. Very poor performance by both teams. Woods goal was the only real chance in the whole game.
Hopefully Cork will improve in the return leg.
All over 1-0 City
Hope that was enough for the poor exiled Foot.ie members here.
yes it was and thanks a bunch!
Ger Canning talks about everything but the game. I could almost tell you the entire backhistory of Appollon now!! :)
Well done Cork but jesus it was a woeful match.
Nice competing with you to be first to post the updates aswell CTID. I bet you for the goal and full time:cool: :p.Quote:

Cheers lads!
Have to disagree there. There's no obligation on a team to knock the ball out of play to let someone get treatment, especially when he's within five yards of the touchline.Quote:

Good result though. Very tough draws this year, so every result's welcome! Half of the lost co-efficient from six years ago gained back in one match. Though the three countries immediately above us all won as well, but Belarus (level with us) lost.
Away game next week is live on RTÉ - didn't hear that, but all credit to them. 7:00 kick-off Irish time. Going to be tough for Cork - Apollon looked a handy team at times; countered very well and Cork will find it tough with the heat.
1-0 could be worse
cork were pretty good in the 2nd half but muck in da 1st. if they can use the ball as well as they did for most of the 2nd half i'd say they shud go thru. roy o'donovan could do with lookin up b4 he puts in a cross

First half was muck but we should have had another goal, mare from Devine on the free kick so it evens out. JOF claims he could be fit for Wednesday so we live in hope. Apollon were pretty crap though to be honest.
What's that got to do with it? Even if I supported Kildare or Monaghan, am I not allowed to comment on a poor performance by a team representing our league on a European stage?:confused: :rolleyes:.Quote:

No, never have. We're undefeated at home this season and I haven't seen any good performances:rolleyes:.Quote:
