Ireland might yet have two teams in the group stages of European combat for the first time after Shamrock Rovers defeated their North Macedonian rivals Shkupi 3-1 – the ultimate victory in a game billed as a struggle between good and 'evil' prior to kick-off by the visitors.
Shamrock Rovers' Europa League opponents Shkupi have released an extraordinary statement condemning the "evil" decision to prevent them from flying into Dublin, with the North Macedonian side instead heading to Shannon Airport ahead of their Tallaght Stadium showdown tonight.
Shamrock Rovers enter what feels like the second phase of their European campaign with the ultimate target of group stage qualification this summer.
Stephen Bradley is convinced that his Shamrock Rovers side have the quality and capability of beating Shkupi over two legs to progress to the next stage of the Europa League.
Shamrock Rovers will play Qarabag FK (Azerbaijan) or Ferencvaros (Hungary) in the play-off round of the Europa League if they can overcome Shkupi of Macedonia in the third stage of qualifying.
Shamrock Rovers continued their impressive week with a comprehensive 4-0 victory over Leinster Senior League side Bangor Celtic to progress to the next round of the FAI Cup.
Stephen Bradley said the Shamrock Rovers fans should be proud after their team's "outstanding" performance in their 2-1 second leg win over Ludogorets, but castigated the referee's "unbelievable" decision to book Richie Towell when the visitors could have been reduced to nine men.
Shamrock Rovers gave it everything only to come up short as Ludogorets left Tallaght Stadium relieved to be safely through to the third qualifying round of the Champions League.
