tough game alright:( best of luck.
Derry City are home to PSG - a david v goliath style clash on paper.
Also Iraklis (from Greece - I proudly sport one of their shirts, since the Oxegen festival last year - thank you Greek Order 
) are away to Wisla Krakow of Poland - in theory not a bad draw for Iraklis, buttheir form has been bad so far this season, with 1 draw & 2 defeats in their first 3 games in the Greek league, so a draw away would probably be a good result there.

yep - a fair result too - Derry hit the PSG bar & PSG had a shot cleared off the Derry line. Derry manager Stephen Kenny said something like 'we didnt show all we can do out there tonight, PSG didnt play their normal game - they resorder to a physical, long-ball game, which surprised us. But we will be better in the second leg.' - fighting words.
I presume PSG will be better at home, but Kenny is right - Derry can play better too, so, there could be another good result for Derry yet
Also 'my Greek team' Iraklis managed to be the ONLY Greek team to win last night - a 0:1 away win sets them up nicely to reach the group stages
As for Blackburn - a 2:2 away draw is a very decent result IMO - gives them every chance of finishing this one off at home.
Thought Derry played well and had a fair shout for a penalty as well. Didn't like the way the pumped the ball up to McHugh, yer big man Traore won everything. Darren Kelly was brilliant in defence, he was a quality player in the Irish League and he should be called up for Northern Ireland's next friendly game whenever it is. With them not conceding at home there is always a chance they could snatch a result away but I think PSG will go through.

I forgot that - yes it should have been a penno - DEFINITE foul.
