Euro Results: Larne 2-1 Aarhus, Linfield 4-0 Borac Banja Luka, Abergreen 5-1 Hacken, HIVs 3-0 Santa Coloma

[Johnny The Fox]

Larne win 2-1. That is a tremendous result against a team that finished 4th in the Danish league.

 

[DoubleWhopper]

One of the guys they’ve got through their MLS links, he’s 1:2 for the USA National team.

Mainly because he’s only played 2 games

Actually sounds a decent pedigree for Aberdeen that, although I’m fairly confident I could also achieve a similar scoring rate against some of the CONCACAF teams !

 

[BODiE]

Aberdeen have played very well tbf

 

[SDF]

5-1

That is some result for them TBF.

 

[UnionCruiser72]

5-1 Hacken are really, really bad.

They came 3rd last year and are already a fair chunk through their league.

Gives me slight confidence that the Swedish league is pish and we should be very much favourites against Malmö.

 

[Langland]

Did anyone watch the match? Sounds nuts.

His goal came against the might of Panama.

 

[RobbenHood]

Hopefully get a win in the second leg too, extra points to the coefficient

Nice to see other teams actually turning up in Europe

 

[Macky]

Aberdeen look like they will be much improved this season.

They are mid table this season.

We are already very much favourites against Malmo?!?

 

[Main Stand]

Feyenoord still 0-0.

 

[RobbenHood]

His goal came against the might of Panama.

Tbf they’ve been in the World Cup more recently than Scotland

 

[20rangersultras07]

TO NOTE

hibs and Aberdeen will be unseeded for play off round regardless if they knock their next opponents out.

teams they can face :
Tottenham, Roma, Basel, Union Berlin Copenhagen, Plzen, Gent, Anderlecht, Astana, Feyenoord, Qarabag,FCSB M. Tel Aviv, PAOK, AEK

FWIW looking at it from a rangers point of view. We’d beat 90% of them.

 

[bigy]

Just a shame that not all Scottish teams could pull their weight this week.

 

[Langland]

Boys on the radio sound a but shellshocked that the sheep are 5-1 up haha.

 

[dcbear]

Sheep fans will have themselves as potential champions now.

 

[DoubleWhopper]

His goal came against the might of Panama.

If it were anyone else I’d assume they’d looked that up. But I think you probably saw it happen live

 

[Tailwind]

So, the 4th placed team in Scotland just arse raped the 3rd ranked team from Sweden, but Rangers should be shitting it from Malmo?

 

[Deekw72]

Aberdeen look a shadow of last years side going on that game. Attacking fluent football. See how long it lasts. Great result for them.

 

[BrotherMoses]

Regardless of opposition, 5-1 in Europe is a very impressive result.

When you consider that they're playing a team who finished 3rd in Sweden last year and are currently halfway through their season, you start to wonder if the sheep bastards will actually give them scum a run for second this year.

 

[Main Stand]

If it were anyone else I’d assume they’d looked that up. But I think you probably saw it happen live

I did look that one up to be fair, I do actually have some kind of life - no matter how boring

 

[Old man of Hoy]

Not sure if that's a freak result against a poor side or a much improved Sheep side, watched the 2nd half, thought they were decent to be fair, good for co efficient.

 

[Pennine Walk]

No doubt the papers will have Scott Brown crowing about Aberdeen's Euro glory. Bill Leckie will probably do a piece on Scotland's European resurgence.
As usual the real work will be done by Rangers and then the media will go quiet.

 

[dcbear]

If it wasnt for away goals being in the bin, I'd fancy Haecken for 4-0 in the second leg.

 

[DoubleWhopper]

So, the 4th placed team in Scotland just arse raped the 3rd ranked team from Sweden, but Rangers should be shitting it from Malmo?

The last page sums up this place in a nutshell.

People praising a northern Irish team for beating the 4th placed Danish team. Meanwhile a Scottish team beating the 3rd placed Swedish team 5-1is greeted with disdain

 

[Donsky]

If McInnes was still in charge, I am not sure they would've won 5-1, in fact I would've went for a draw.

 

[waldo 1160]

That DESPICABLE man was just as DESPICABLE in red as he was in green...unsavoury character.

I haven’t read any of the thread.

I saw the thread title and thought that can’t be right with all the panty wetting (that’s right, I said it, deal with it ) going on in the transfer window thread thinking a team of

McGregor
Tav Goldson Helander Borna/Bassey
Lundstram Davis Kamara
Hagi/Aribo Morelos/Sakala Kent

or similar can’t do the business against Malmö

 

[prower]

Aberdeen and Hibs contributing more to the coefficient than the scum...

 

[Langland]

Their last goal was a wee belter.

Just saw this on twitter: 'Aberdeen pumped Hacken and Hibs pumped a bunch of hacken b@stards'.

Absolutely this, and it’s very short sighted.

If the other Scottish teams can do well enough that we keep our coefficient where it is, that’s very good for us.

Automatic CL groups football for several seasons on the bounce would be outstanding for our finances. We are very well placed to be big title favourites for the next couple of seasons, if we can get 2/3 consecutive seasons in the CL we will be miles ahead of the vermin.

 

[sheddensbear]

Rijeka will be very technical and able to keep the ball. It'll be good experience for Aberdeen because outside of us and the bheasts, they are not use to have to try to win possession and running about without the ball.

 

[GeckoBear29]

I hate to say this but Aberdeen looked really fucking good against a very decent team

 

[GodStruth]

Boyle brought down last man, red card. Must say Im surprised no bigger team has ever went in for Boyle, diving wee bastard but a very dangerous player.

Final ball is appalling 9/10

 

[monkey magic]

If he sneezes live on air it could get embarrassing

It must cost him a few bob to feed and water that thing on his head. lol

I also hope it indicates a weak Swedish League in general and we pump Malmo.

 

[DocStone]

They played some very good football, which is very unlike Aberdeen to be fair. It's going to be an interesting league campaign this year.

 

[strider]

Given most of us, myself included, thought Aberdeen might struggle in that game, you have to say that was a very good result.

And if they'd scored more than five it wouldn't have been undeserved.

Good to see both sides getting the job done, given the sort of embarrassing stuff that's happened in recent years.

Its a very small minded mentality really.

Who thinks of Hibs or Aberdeen or St Johnstone as rivals? Them chipping in is only good for us.

Maybe it’s this new found peace of mind I’ve been embracing in my life recently ....but I really don’t care what their supporters think about Rangers. It doesn’t bother me in the slightest. It doesn’t register on the Richter scale of my thinking, when it seems so obvious that the non- Celtic teams winning can only help us.

Will you get back in the section with your Hibs scarf mate?

 

[instructor]

2 Scottish teams win, good for the national co-efficient, keep it up. Quite impressive by the Sheep there as they were playing a Swedish team so no mugs unlike Hibs' opposition.

 

[DJ_RFC_1872]

The league next season is going to be really strong and sadly we might actually lose a game this season.

 

[dcbear]

I watched FC Drita of Kosovo v Feyenoord. It finished 0-0 and it was rubbish.

 

[GovanFront4]

Did anyone watch the match? Sounds nuts.

Watched first half, Hacken had one opportunity of note an then the Considine incident. After that Aberdeen could genuinely have scored four in the first half.

 

[20rangersultras07]

Will you get back in the section with your Hibs scarf mate?

I’ve been exposed

 

[UnionCruiser72]

Rijeka will be very technical and able to keep the ball. It'll be good experience for Aberdeen because outside of us and the bheasts, they are not use to have to try to win possession and running about without the ball.

Aberdeen won’t play Rijeka mate hibs will.

 

[spirit_of_93]

Larne win 2-1. That is a tremendous result against a team that finished 4th in the Danish league.

Linfield result is unbelievable too, that team nearly put out Cluj last week.

 

[Gascoigne8]

Have the Lewis Ferguson rumours started up again yet?

 

[Johnny The Fox]

Linfield result is unbelievable too, that team nearly put out Cluj last week.

Saw the Borac players walking around Belfast this morning. Maybe the heat got to them and the Danes!

This! Setting aside the fact that we have no love for either club, there is no doubt that they were both very creditable results. It is a pleasant change to see other Scottish clubs winning in European ties.
