Neil Lennon suffered a Europa League nightmare as Omonia Nicosia kicked off their group stage campaign.
The former Celtic boss welcomed FC Sheriff to Cyprus as his men looked to get off to a flying start following a stunning play-off win over Gent. However, they found themselves behind after just two minutes with the visitors silencing the home support very early on. Ibrahim Akanbi Rasheed was the man to open the scoring.
Ten minutes into the second half Iyayi Believe Atiemwen netted from the spot to push the visitors further ahead with Mouhamed Diop hitting a third and game winning goal with less than 15 minutes to play. Ex-Celtic defender Adam Matthews played the full 90 minutes of the defeat.
