DUFFUS LEAVES IT LATE FOR WATERFORD WINNER

COURTNEY DUFFUS scored a sensational 90th minute winner as high-flying Waterford beat Sligo Rovers at the Showgrounds. Gavin Holohan superbly headed home the opener on 34 minutes but Rovers were much improved in the second half, and Morgan equalised at the back post following a scramble in the box. However, Duffus had the final say against the run of play.

It was an understandably nervous start to the game wih both sides coming off the back of heavy defeats. Limerick and Bray are favourites to be battling relegation this season and it showed throughout the game before Morrisey struck.

REFEREE: A Buttimer (Cork) ST PAT’S made the most of another missed Bohemians penalty to earn their second away win of the season last night. After Eoghan Stokes failed to convert against Derry, Keith Ward missed from 12 yards after only five minutes. Then on 14 minutes Bohs allowed Simon Madden claim a loose ball and he spotted Dean Clarke who tapped home for what proved to be the winner.
