Dundalk will likely need to score in Cyprus if they're to progress to the third qualifying round of the Europa League.
Stephen Kenny's side played out a scoreless draw with AEK Larnaca at Oriel Park tonight.
Scoreless here at Oriel Park. Michael Duffy had the best chance for the Lilywhites early on and his half-chance was the clearest after the break. Joan Tomàs & Apostolos Giannou went closest for Larnaca. Half-time in the two legs. All to play for.
