Glentoran set up a clash with Motherwell in Europa League qualifying following a 1-0 victory over Faroese club HB.

Robbie McDaid's thumping volley just before half-time settled the preliminary round tie at The Oval in Belfast.

Victory for the Irish Cup holders means they will travel to Scotland next week for a first qualifying round match at Fir Park.

Coleraine also progressed, defeating La Fiorita of San Marino 1-0 following a dramatic late winner from James McLaughlin at The Showgrounds.

The game was ticking towards extra-time when forward McLaughlin latched on to a long ball to break the deadlock for the dominant hosts in the 89th minute.

Irish Premiership runners-up Coleraine have been drawn away to Slovenian club Maribor in the next round.
