Euro agony as Lilywhites come so close

Hajduk Split 1 Dundalk 2(3-2 to Hajduk on aggregate)

Trailing 2-0 from the first leg, Stephen Kenny’s side were another goal away from advancing after coming from behind in the second half to set up a tense finale.

The home side took the lead on 25 minutes when Sandro Gotal played in Jean Evrad Kouassi, who beat the Dundalk defence and then slotted the ball past Gabriel Sava.
