‘Greatest win in my career’ – OK

COLERAINE boss Oran Kearney and captain Stephen O’Donnell spoke to the media after the Bannsiders’ Europa League victory against NK Maribor…

Despite going into the fixture as massive underdogs, the Stripes produced a herculean performance to eliminate the fifteen time Slovenian champions and move into the second qualifying round of the Europa League.

Boss Kearney insists the players stuck to the game plan expertly and believes the win was the best in his career in football. He also acknowledged how great it was to give son Luca an unforgettable football memory as he travelled with the first-team squad to Slovenia.

Skipper O’Donnell admits the win will take some time to sink in but is one that he and his team-mates should be proud of.
