Kicking the league when it’s down a mug’s game
The worst of it for Cork City on Thursday night in Norway was that the evening was almost a carbon copy of what had happened at Turner’s Cross the previous week.
In both games, City began full of energy and intent, looking at least a match for, if not at times even better than, their opponents. But, for all the promise of their early good work, a combination of defensive errors and clinical finishing had Rosenborg two-up and cruising before the break in both the first and second legs.
