Bohemians have given themselves a chance of Intertoto Cup progress after losing 1-0 in the away leg of their second-round tie against FK Riga.
A goal just before half-time gave the Latvian side the edge in Sunday's first-leg clash - played in front of a sparse crowd in Liepaja, around 200 miles from the country's capital.

Brian Murphy made two good saves after the break as Riga finished strongest - but Pat Fenlon's team will believe they can overhaul the deficit in Saturday's return at Dalymount Park.
