Shamrock Rovers boss Stephen Bradley is convinced that League of Ireland teams are capable of consistently hitting the same heights his side has managed this year in reaching the knockout stages of European competitions.

The Hoops fell just short of a place in the Conference League round of 16 on Thursday night, losing out to Molde FK of Norway on penalties after letting slip their 1-0 first leg advantage with a defeat on the same scoreline in Tallaght.
