Reaction: What was said on social media after Nomads’ stunning victory over Kilmarnock
Connah’s Quay secured one of the biggest European shocks ever as they knocked Kilmarnock out of the Europa League.
Andy Morrison’s men overturned a first-leg defeat, to claim victory at Rugby Park, thanks to two goals from Callum Morris.
Social media was taken over as the Welsh football community came together to celebrate an important victory.
Elsewhere, there was dejection from Kilmarnock fans, with the Killie fans now having to change their plans.

You just never know in football.. We all presumed it would be Kilmarnock but @the_nomads have proved everyone wrong.

It's a trip to Wales on July 25 in the @EuropaLeague 2nd qualifying round 🏴
And then, back to Belgrade on August 1 ☠️ pic.twitter.com/gNAq1bKBAS
Amazing result for @the_nomads – the best ever @WPL_Official scalp in Europe perhaps? Chuffed for Andy Morrison as well, good bloke, excellent coach.

The agony…
It should also be noted that hundreds of Kilmarnock fans have already paid for flights to Belgrade and booked accommodation.

Absolutely gutted about Kilmarnock, took them 18 years for another shot at Europe, watched them fight and claw every single week last season to have their best top flight season since the 1960's and they've thrown a European campaign away ASAP against a part time Welsh side.

Some banter…
Football's just a branch of science.
