Derry out despite a tonic start

Shakhtyor Soligorsk 5 Derry City 1 (Shakhytor win 6-1 on aggregate)

Devastated at losing the home leg on a 0-1 scoreline, Derry stunned Shakhtyor when teenager Michael Duffy levelled the tie on aggregate, hammering the ball home after Rory Patterson’s shot had been parried by keeper Artur Kotenko.

The Candystripes were brought crashing back to earth three minutes later as Shakhtyor midfielder Siarhei Balanovich equalised from eight yards after the Derry defence failed to clear.
