But the game was temporarily halted as Nkunku was unable to take a corner amid the onslaught of loo roll being chucked his way.

The referee stopped the game as Nkunku and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall did their best to clean up the corner area.

The game did resume shortly afterwards.

“Today in football it is difficult to find a team that has no strengths.

“All the teams have something good, and some things we can try to work on and win the game.

“I watched four or five [Shamrock] games and they are a good team.

“They try to defend as a block all together, and play face to face with the other team.

“I’m quite convinced all the games are difficult. It depends on us, the way we take that game, and it can become easier or more difficult, but for sure it will be another game we try to win.”
