Five - We played a strong team at Bohemians.

Martin Jol after last night's Euro game:

“We have played six games now. Maybe you would prefer to play eight or nine games in the pre-season as some other players didn’t play a lot so that is probably a disadvantage, but I am satisfied with the results because we got through to the next round."
