Shamrock Rovers fans were breathing a sigh of relief on Tuesday afternoon as a live stream for their massive Europa League clash with FK Shkupi was confirmed late in the day.
With no TV station showing the clash and no stream secured as of lunchtime, it looked as though Hoops fans in Ireland would not be able to watch the third qualifying round match live.
But it was announced shortly after 2pm that Shamrock Rovers had secured the rights to stream the match live and that it would be broadcast on LOITV for a cost of €10 to fans. It can be purchased here.
