QuoteFantastic result for St Pats. It would be one of the best results in europe for a LOI club if Pats can see their lead through the 2nd leg next week in Russia.
I never imagined Pats even drawing this game, absolutely amazing result, one of stand out wins from a LOI side in history.

great result st pats
Just saw the goal on the tv now, cracking finish from fabio! Wel done pats.
I’m not pedantic...I’m merely overly concerned with minute details.
Yep excellent result tonight for Pats...............................I still hope o'brien gets lost in Russia somewhere
Not too bad of a result for Derry either 1-0 defeat in Bulgaria, tie very much in the balance
Astounding 2nd half by Pats
For all the ball the Russians had, we had 3/4 good chances
I think Derry have a better chance of going through than us but I'll enjoy this result for a while

Great result from Pats. People say the summer football gives the Irish teams an advantage but the Russians couldn't use that excuse.

Absolutly amazing night, Im still in shock i thought we would get hammered, Fabio is fast becoming a Pats legend,
Good result for Derry aswell, fill out the Brandywell next week get a great atmosphere going and i really think they can go threw, This time next week could be an amazing night for LOI fans
Football Dynamo?
Here on a technicality.
Speaking honestly, I don't think we'll go through. We can defend against them alright, but our attack this season has so bad. That's what might let us down.
Here is the goal and two links to the CSKA fans. If you look at the first one they seem to be making some kind of protest to Uefa?

So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html
Yeah, interesting book. Guessing you read it as well.
i just dislike the guy, he made no effort at dundalk in any match.
Well done Pat's, fantastic result! Shame about the Derry game though, hopefully they can turn it around in the Brandywell!
The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

Fantastic result for Pats given the number of injured first team players, guarantees Kenna`s job? A clear endorsement of the European Competition benefits of a summer season
From what I saw of the Derry game, it was a very professional performance from the Candystripes ,fair play. Hopefully a packed hostile Brandywell, an aggressive playing performance and the right ref will get you the two goal cushion needed to get through.
Definitely. Given how awful Pat's were against Valletta, and how awful they were for the first half hour of this match - when Krylya passed through their midfield at absolute will - it's quite incredible that Pat's got anything out of this match. Krylya were very poor up front, but you got the feeling that once they ticked, it'd end up 4 or 5. Even then, I lost count of how many last-ditch blocks Pat's put in.
But Pat's seemed to gain confidence around the half hour when it was still 0-0, and amazingly had the four best chances of the game in the second half, even though Krylya were still dominating play. O'Brien and Guy (I think?) both missed one-on-ones. Excellent goal from Fabio too; I thought it hit the side netting (couldn't see from the new stand, and he couldn't possibly have scored from the angle he was at) until everyone went nuts.
If Krylya have Koller back for the second leg, I can still see a 4-0 score, but you never know now. Superb result; well done Pat's.
(And a decent enough result for Derry too, BTW. Though we'll have to teach you how to keep clean sheets in Bulgaria.)
Check out this 'match report' from rte.ie for the Derry game..............if I ever saw a match report written on the basis of just seeing a scoreline this is it.
Derry City's Europa League hopes hang in the balance after the Candystripes fell to a 1-0 defeat against CSKA Sofia in the Bulgarian capital.
Kostadin Stoyanov scored the only goal of the game in the 75th minute to round off a long spell of pressure by the home side that gives them a crucial advantage heading into next week's return leg.
But Stephen Kenny's men will be confident of turning the tie back in their favour at the Brandywell after a brave defensive performance prevented CSKA from doubling their advantage.
And the result was all the more welcome given Derry's poor recent run of form which had seen the club manage to win only one of their last six matches - against Skonto Riga in the previous round.
great result for pats. looks like guy had a great chance to make it 2-0. totally outpaced the defence. great finish from o'brien. they still have to score 2 to win and if pats could nick an away goal they could see them off.
might be the end of the road for derry but you never know.
A stunning and outstanding result for Pats! Magnificent! It would still be a major shock if they progressed, but at least they have a good chance.
How much money have Dundalk given Pats indirectly through Fabio's goals???
