Connah's Quay knock out Kilmarnock!
Part-time Connah's Quay Nomads were a 200-1 shot to knock Scottish Premiership side Kilmarnock out of the Europa League before kick-off on Thursday night.
Their astonishing win has been described as a fairytale, but considering the Nomads have a player named Disney, perhaps we should not be surprised.
While Kilmarnock fans rage about already booked flights to Belgrade, Connah's Quay are celebrating their greatest-ever win and surely, the biggest success for a Welsh side in European competition since the formation of the Welsh Premier League.
Next up is just the small matter of former European Cup finalists FK Partizan Belgrade, who count Fulham forward Aleksandar Mitrovic and former Liverpool winger Lazar Markovic among their recent alumni and are managed by ex-Aston Villa striker Savo Milosevic.

Rhyl on Thursday. Belle Vue has a 3,000 capacity. Connahs Quay has a population of 16,000. There are 3 Sikhs in that number.
Belgrade as a unitary authority has a population of 1.7 million.
As statisticians love to go there, Belgrade is a city with a population just over half the size of Wales and greater than Connahs Quay by a factor of 100+
Morrison said the result was bigger than Liverpool v Barcelona. I'd have that. They also led 1-0 in Rhyl until late on. Phenomenal result
