Uphill task for Cork

Cork City face a difficult task tonight when they take on Djurgarden in the UEFA Cup second round first leg in Stockholm hoping for a good result to bring back to Turner’s Cross in a fortnight’s time.

While last week’s 4-1 defeat for Shelbourne in Bucharest did little to lift the confidence of Irish sides going abroad, Cork manager Damien Richardson insisted that his side must be confident ahead of the game.
