The New Saints manager Craig Harrison insists his side will not sit back and defend a three-goal advantage when they travel to Montenegro for the second leg of their Champions League qualifier.

Cymru Premier champions Saints beat FK Decic 3-0 in the first qualifying round first leg at Park Hall on Tuesday.

Brad Young scored twice in what was an impressive performance from Harrison’s side, who go to Podgorica for the second leg on Tuesday, 16 July.

“We play on the front foot so we can’t afford to play any other way,” Harrison told 91�ȱ� Sport Wales.

“What we don’t want to do is invite pressure from the first minute until the last.

“Obviously there will be large spells you can deal with. But we can’t just rely on going out there and defending to keep a clean sheet.

“We’ll try and score goals because I think if we get one or maybe two goals then the tie’s over.”

First-half goals from Dan Davies and a brace from Young secured the first leg win for Saints.

“Two fantastic crosses and two fantastic headers,” Harrison said of former Aston Villa forward Young’s goals.

“We’ve had two or three other opportunities and maybe 4-0 would make it a real tough game for them to come back into.

“But if someone had [told me] the way the game went and the result that we got... if I’m not happy with that then I need a kick up my backside.”
