Paok looking different class since they decided to play. Bohs need to hang on to have any chance in the return
Oooooh, that was a penalty missed by the ref there IMHO. Lucky for Bohs.
Great result for bohs but hard to see anything other than a convincing win for Paok next time.
Great result for Bohs, went in and played their own game for 50 minutes or so and went 2 up deservedly. Pity they tired so early on, I would have thought theyd have got closer than 75 mins on that one.
It will be a completely different (ball) game over in Greece but that doesnt matter, theyve earned good (coeff)points and proved themselves more than capable tonight.
Georgie kelly did phenomenally up front tonight, won almost everything and held it up very well.
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Amazing. These are the nights you live for as a League of Ireland fan.
Well now, they didn't do too badly at all did they?
Best result for a LOI side in Europe since Dundalk wins against BATE and Maccabi in 2016, considering the strength of the opposition??

Love it when ye see 'big club' players charging at the ref at FT, basically p1ssed at being beaten, hissy fit stuff. Discipline has been important from Bohs, few times they could have lunged in, tired and given away peno/frees/cards. Considering the subs though it was a bit tough on Talbot being carded for timewasting. He rushed things a wee bit after. Their bench didnt like it much - how dare they beat us stuff! Great job Bohs - we can only hope Dundalk can raise our game, Rovers already through of course so no worry there!

There’s more to it than tiring and it being a sign of poor fitness. Keith Long has been notoriously reluctant to use his bench this season which has meant that a lot of our players have put in some serious minutes over the course of the season. Bucko was dead on his feet on around 55 minutes but didn’t even get subbed. I couldn’t understand it.
That said, unbelievable result and despite the weary legs, the subs helped and the end of the game was hilarious, we were so composed and really made mugs of them in the injury time. They didn’t barely leave their half for the last few mins of injury time. One of the great European results for an Irish team.
Rovers got some money for Dan Carr getting some goals in a european run, curious will some random european club be sniffing after Georgie Kelly this year
Huge credit to Bohs,however the tie turns out that is a fantastic result and apart from the last 20 minutes were well worth it….
Congrats to Bohs and a good win for the league too. Next week's starting eleven shouldn't play any part against Waterford imo, they can't afford to tire as early as they did tonight and it will probably be quite hot in Greece
Enjoyed that, fair play Bohs, some lovley ball & deserved to win.
The PAOK Facebook page is a good read post match. Obviously something gets a little lost in translation, but essentially, grievances summed up nicely by 'beaten by a village'.
When PAOK got it back to 2-1 I was feeling shades of Dundalk Vs Zenit in Tallaght, but Bohs held out impressively. I think PAOK only had 1 serious chance toward the end and Talbot saved it.
Fantastic Bohs! and what a cup run by LOI teams so far. group stages for at least one of your 3 teams will be well deserved.
