City lose battle, but win war

Cork City 0 FK Ekranas 1 (City win 2 –1 on aggregate)

City manager Damien Richardson, though, praised the attitude of his team, terming it a game that they won ugly: "It's all about winning call it winning ugly but I was delighted with the attitude shown by the team on a difficult night.

"We were very good over there but here tonight I though we played effectively. It wasn't the free-flowing football we played last week.
