Victory sees ambitious dream of denying Shamrock Rovers the league stays alive until Friday
. Victory over Sligo on a damp Inchicore evening secured the bare minimum of a third consecutive year of European football. Victory also sees the more ambitious dream of denying Shamrock Rovers a fourth league title in a row stays alive until Friday, when the champions visit Richmond Park.
It wasn’t to be the last influential intervention from Rovers’ skipper. On 37 minutes, his deflection took Leavy’s strike wickedly out of the path of Sligo ‘keeper Richard Brush and into the top corner. The flick was fortunate, the build-up anything but after Leavy’s delicate touch to beat the first man opened up space for the strike.
The start of the second half failed to live up to the frenetic tempo of the first, Pat’s happy to slow the game down and hold on to possession in midfield. The worsening weather conditions did nothing for the flow of the game, proceedings breaking up into a series of niggly challenges and yellow cards.
