• Saints record their biggest European win to date, with a comprehensive victory over their Icelandic opponents.
• Shaun Rooney scores his first goal for the club on his debut, heading home a deep O’Hara corner after 16 minutes.
• Toyosi Olusanya doubles Saints lead just after half-time when Roland Idowu unselfishly gives him an open goal after the Icelandic offside trap had failed.
• Man of the match Mark O’Hara further increases the lead 10 minutes later, when he volleys home spectacularly from the edge of the box.
• The sell out crowd (home end only) witnesses the hard working part timers get a goal back from the penalty spot with 15 minutes remaining, but the carnival like atmosphere inside the stadium can not be dampened.
• Alex Iacovitti completes the scoring late in the match, also on his debut, when he knocks home after Ayunga was denied by Schram, giving the Paisley men a record European victory.
