Nec-Nijmegen (City's next round opponents)

Ah good old Nijmegen.
Not the first time Cork City shirts will be present in this excellent little ground.
I was pictured in a City shirt on an Ireland International match programme after having been at an Ireland U21 game there in 2000.
The ground is in a little forest and the nearest pub only had 11 500ml glasses.
Some poor sods in our group had to have the little glasses
There's a great train service from Amsterdam.

Lets beat Malmo first though

Was'nt there a battle for the Nijmegen bridge during WWII????????

Yes. As part of Operation Market Garden. If you've ever seen the film 'A Bridge Too Far' this will give you an idea.
