F.C. Progès Niederkorn – Shamrock Rovers FC
F.C. Progès Niederkorn – Shamrock Rovers FC (UEFA Europa League - First Qualifying Round) at the Football Stadium in Oberkorn (Luxembourg)
Shamrock Rovers will face Progrès Niederkorn in the First Qualifying Round of the UEFA Europa League on Tuesday, 30 June at Stade Municipal Oberkorn in Oberkorn, Luxembourg. Kick off time is at 19.00 (and not 18.00 as previously announced).
Shamrock Rovers won the League of Ireland title 17 times and thus have a long history in European competition. Throughout their European participation Shamrock Rovers have only once played in Luxembourg. This was back in 1966-1967 where they beat CA Spora Luxembourg (now part of RFCUL) by 4-1 (home and away) in the European Cup Winners’ Cup.
Progrès Niederkorn won the Luxembourg Cup 4 times and three times they were top of the domestic league. This is Progrès Niederkorn's 6th European qualification since its foundation in 1919. Their last appearance at European level was back in 1982–83, so this year's qualification is considered as their great comeback.
