Conference League: 10-man Shelbourne fall behind to deflected goal against Kosovan champions Drita in Tallaght
"Drita take the lead in Tallaght. The Kosovan champions have had double the amount of attempts as Shels so far, but their opener arrives in fortuitous fashion as the ball falls to Ajzeraj on the edge of the box, with his shot taking deflections off both JJ Lunney and Lewis Temple before rolling into the bottom corner. A real suckerpunch for the Reds, who have no option but to go for this now."
"A real suckerpunch for the Reds, who have no option but to go for this now."
Drita take the lead in Tallaght after sustained pressure produces a fortuitous opener. The Kosovan champions recorded roughly double the attempts compared with Shelbourne before the break. The decisive moment saw the ball fall to Ajzeraj on the edge of the box, and his shot took deflections off JJ Lunney and Lewis Temple before rolling into the bottom corner. The goal acts as a suckerpunch to the Reds and leaves Shelbourne obliged to push forward and alter their approach in search of an equaliser.
