It proved to be the Shock of Gibraltar as Derry City were stunned by minnows Bruno’s Magpies at the Europa Point stadium but it didn’t stop the travelling Candy Stripes’ fans from enjoying their trip to the Iberian Peninsula.

Photographer Neil Wilson was on hand to capture some colourful snaps of travelling City fans before and during the Uefa Conference League first round qualifier.
