Stephen Kenny the man in the helm of these hardened Lilywhites, is making history after netting his eleventh international win. With a score from Dylan Connolly in the 53’ minute, the Town Boys hit first in this two game series.
As the action of European football return to Oriel Park, that lone score is putting the Irish side near the second round and moving on in their quest of making it into the coveted stage group, where these lads are no strangers.
For the Lilywhites currently in league play playing a one of a kind game of football and leading the pack in the SSE as well now showing off their might as a visitor in far lands netting a notable win, this squad is for real.
Still this affair is far from gone and with the second leg coming home to Dundalk colossus, will be a well-taken challenge for the Town side, still at home is where this guys are a force not to mess with in this campaign.
After last campaign troubles this edition this squad is seriously taken a winning approach beyond and looking forward to return to their old glories and once again be the first League of Ireland squad to make it for the second time past the knockout rounds.
Already with a rival selected in Cyprus AEK Larnaca this second round for sure will not be a walk in the park and as the Lilywhites keep advancing in this competition they are aware of how good their foes will be, so they need to step up their game.
As I mention before the way this club is playing with absolute confidence and unity, it will be difficult to see someone in Airtricity take them down, still no one is perfect as one day their winning streak must come to a halt.
Despite the lead of a lone goal, this is not over and this one thing manager Stephen Kenny is aware as the might of the Estonians drive to spoil the fun at home for the Dundalk side mounting the scoreboard in the end.
Still I laud the extra effort performed by Dundalk Dylan Connolly in the 53’ minute that gave the visiting League of Ireland side the win and now coming back home to just seal the deal and move on in this edition of the Europa League.
Coming home the Lilywhites are ready to take advantage of their opportunities that a rise, after Pat Hoban, Jamie McGrath and Micheal Duffy missing in what could been a more comfortable lead coming home.
Nonetheless, these Lilywhites are for real and today in Tallinn; these delivered a valuable win and now looking forward to more challenging endeavors and in six day looking ot put this one in the books.
