Palermo get a precious 1-0 away victory. They scored in the last minute of stoppage time thanks to Serbian midfielder Bosko Jankovic. Fabio Caserta got the assist.
Yep, decent result. I don't think we'll go far simply because we don't have the experience (our players don't, the manager doesn't) to play in that sort of competition. We'll probably get to the group stages but i've not seen anthing to suggest we'll be magical in europe. Hopefully more years in the competition will help with this. I hope in a few years we can do something like Sevilla, just sowly but surely rise from mid table to top of the table with a talented manager and good squad (which I think we have now).
You are probably right Decola, but I think if Palermo focused a little more on the tournament, they could do well. Remember last season when the owner said he hoped the team lost?
Palermo are out of the UEFA Cup on penalties. They let in a last minute goal that tied the game on aggregate. http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/eurogames/pal-bol.html
