The winner in round 4 or 3? Does that mean linfield are guaranteed the Europa League group stages? What's been their transformation? Just hery?

If they win - and it's 1-1 now - then they're into the play-off round in the EL. They're out of the CL already.

No real transformation; just the new format allowing smaller countries' champions a better chance at the EL groups. They were easily beaten by Rosenborg and then beat a Faroese side 3-2 in the EL.

2-1 up now; 4-2 on aggregate.

PAOK currently lead 3-2 on aggregate against Ajax. Dundalk play the losers of that tie should they get through.

Good stream and atmosphere much better than on eir. Nice start for Dundalk.

And Ajax 1-0 down at home to PAOK (2-3 on aggregate) and they've missed a penalty. Loser to play Dundalk/Slovan next.

Ya I got confused when you said the winners play qarabag v appel as in the winners of that tie.
Cheers

Very lucky there. Off the line. Still making silly mistakes defensively

Game over.

Oh for god's sake. Tie over.

Wtf Perth. Really poor game plan, what was he thinking on

That's the end of that.

Funny, very similar to Slovan's opener against us, as the away leg was similar to our away leg.

Oh dear

That's the difference one attack and they picked their man out. Dundalk had 3 very good attacks without finding a man in the box

On first glance it looked a soft goal, a lump down the pitch then put into the box and goodnight.

It's not over yet. They were never going to get a 1-0. Keep the heads.

I think they had to get a 1-0 tbh. Three goals is surely beyond them?

The cross was well placed but the marking was terrible. It's really basic stuff that's the frustrating stuff.

Even if they do they will probably concede again. Very poor defensively again there after a lump up the pitch. Not even 20 mins are gone however and I'm not sure Slovan are up to much if put under a bit of pressure.

Blast the thing stop trying to place it.
