Shamrock Rovers 0 : 0 Ekranas Panevezys - Rovers held in Champions League tie
Posted Tuesday, July 17, 2012 by PA
Stephen O'Donnell missed a late chance as Shamrock Rovers were held to a goalless draw by Ekranas in the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round in Dublin.
Rovers had their chances against the Lithuanian league leaders, the best of which saw O'Donnell burst through late only to fire straight at visiting keeper Emilljus Zubas.
Hopes were high after last season's heroics when Rovers became the first Irish team to reach the Europa League group stages, but they must now get a result in Lithuania next week to progress.
