Gareth Deane is helpless to keep out Nemanja Andusic's second goalColeraine bowed out of the Europa Conference League at the opening hurdle after losing 4-2 on aggregate to Bosnian side Velez Mostar. Matthew Shevlin gave the Irish Premiership side hope of overturning their 2-1 first-leg defeat in Sarajevo a week ago with a first-half header. Greek side AEK Athens await Velez in the second qualifying round tie of the new European competition. Harris Ovcina saw an early shot blocked by Gareth Deane and from the resultant short corner, the Coleraine keeper was again equal to De Souza's shot from the edge of the penalty area. Zajmovic curled a shot wide for Velez but from a virtually identical position on 53 minutes, de Souza's shot deflected off the head of Stephen O'Donnell giving Deane no chance.
