PAOK 4 Shamrock Rovers 0 SHAMROCK ROVERS ’ INTEREST in the Europa League is all but over after a sobering night in the sapping heat of Thessaloniki.
It didn’t begin well for Stephen Bradley’s side at the Toumba Stadium with pivotal centre-back Roberto Lopes not making the starting eleven following a knock suffered in last week’s win over Celje. Then, from Brazilian Taison’s corner, Pohls once more pushed away a close range shot from Polish midfielder Tomasz Kedziora.
An injury to Trevor Clarke saw Lopes introduced as Rovers reshuffled, the skipper soon in action when bravely blocking a drive from Jonny Otto with his head.
