A Look Back On Memorable European Nights In Inchicore
Richmond Park plays host to what could be another enthralling night of European football this Thursday evening.
Dinamo Minsk from Belarus are the visitors with the tie currently level at 1-1 with St Pat's having a slight advantage of an away goal.
Tickets for the game are selling fast and to accommodate supporters the Club will remain open until 8pm tonight.
A large crowd is expected and supporters are encouraged to purchase tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
To prepare for the night we thought we'd look back on some magical 'European' nights at Richmond Park over the past number of years

St Patrick's Athletic 2 - Elfsborg 1
Briefly looked to be on course for a cruel defeat at Richmond Park last night, St Patrick's Athletic scored twice in the dying minutes of a frantic and utterly compelling Uefa Cup tie to book their place in this afternoon's draw for the first round proper.
Goals from Jason Gavin and Mark Quigley sealed the tie in favour of the Dubliners who had come from two goals down in Sweden two weeks ago. Match Report

St Patrick's Athletic 1 - Krylia Sovetov 0
Don't let the fact that you've probably never heard of Krylya Sovetov underestimate the sheer magnitude of this result. Last night's result at Richmond Park is the most improbable win achieved by an Irish club in some time.
Despite spending the majority of this encounter without the ball, Declan O'Brien's 70th-minute strike secured a remarkable first-leg success for Jeff Kenna's charges. Match Report
