Nervy stuff in Oriel. This would never have happened in Turners X
Could easily have been a red for that tackle. Nasty lunge
Bit of an exaggeration. I don't think Dundalk have ever looked under pressure in the 2nd half.Dundalk are not having this their own way - Levadia are bossing the second half IMO
Done and dusted and on they march. Larnaca should be an interesting tie.
They took their foot of the gas a bit, but never looked in trouble. (The contrast between AIK's stadium in Stockholm and Oriel Park is, eh, somewhat marked).
Well done Dundalk, but that second half, they were second fiddle at times. Levadia had a few half chances. Still, WHAT a goal from Duffy. Just immense, maybe best ever seen in Oriel Park?
3 wins tonight.
Where does that put our coefficient?

2 wins and a draw. 0.875?
It's 3 wins - 2 away (Rovers & Derry) and 1 (Dundalk) at home.
Just a bit!! The grassy bank behind the town goal isnt even grassy at the moment. I think it was a controlled performance by Dundalk, dark arts of killing time too though shows some experience of playing in Europe. Dundalk played well within themselves so can and need to step up a gear for Larnaca. Great to see Chevdukas available; Adorjan willing to to track back and runs in to the channel being cut off. Not spectacular by any means but enough to finish the job.
This page will update in the next hour or so I'd say. We're almost caught up to Macedonia in 34th now.

Yeah, Rovers' only counts as a draw which seems stupid as the first leg counts as the 90 minute result. Same thing with the play-off against France in 09.
We should be in 35th now:
Ireland 7.325 = 35th
Moldova 7.125
Albania 7.125
Finland 7.150
Iceland 6.625 = 39th
Realistically that's as far as we could hope to rise this year - anything else would be a huge bonus, but it's early days yet - we aren't the only ones with teams still in the next round

Trophy Manager - online football managment game - I like it - I think I'm getting obsessed with it though.
It was a great goal but there are a few contenders over the years. A Peter Whitnell volley/fluke from 35/40 yards, Donal Broughan's free from inside his own half, Brian Byrne running the length of the pitch, a couple of McEleney specials in recent years, But yup it is a goal of the month contender ;p
We need to get 2.000 or more this year to hold our place. It's well within our grasp.
In terms of the coefficient the result after AET is the one counted. So that would have been classified as a draw. From a results perspective yes it was 3 wins after 90 minutes.
I think your maths is a bit out there? We started the day on 6.7 - two wins is 0.5 and a draw for Rovers is 0.125, so we're on 7.325? Have you given an extra win?
But even that has us only 0.3 behind Macedonia, who have only one team left. It's doable. Won't get higher than that though; Hungary got another win tonight and have three teams left.
All 4 teams competitive , which is a big step in the right direction. 29th was our peak position in recent history IIRC.
Well done to Derry, Rovers, and Dundalk tonight.
Badly needed boost to league after Cork's poor performance in Poland.
It shows the difference that a positive approach makes.
