That away goal could prove invaluable for the next match. A good header saved by their keeper.

Podence on for Vinagre who has had a good game.

Donk on for Mutinho with five to go.

Having done most off the attacking in the second half we have only one goal to show for it. But it is a valuable away goal.

Going to be a tough second leg. They looked a half decent side.

Not the greatest match, with neither side really looking interested. It was strange watching with the only noise coming from the fifty or so local supporters allowed in by sponsors. As usual we started slowly and never really moved up a gear until after they had scored. We in the end had almost equal possession and more shots and corners.

As Woody said "they looked a half decent side", but no more than you would expect at this point in the competition. Sometimes playing against ten men can be more difficult, and the home side played six across the back at times.

As I said the away goal could prove crucial for the home tie, if and when it is played.

They did us down the right hand side more than once, Vinagre isn't quite up to it defensively yet... I'm hoping Jonny will be fit by the time we play them in the return, that and a good performance could see us through.
