LOI,Shamrock Rovers,Shock

Victory moves Dundalk to within three points of second-from-bottom Drogheda United, while Rovers have lost ground near the top.

DUNDALK TONIGHT CLAIMED a massive win in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division as they dramatically defeated defending champions Shamrock Rovers 1-0 at Oriel Park.

Taking charge of Dundalk was Liam Burns, who was acting as temporary replacement for Noel King following his departure from the club after just four matches in the dugout. Jack Byrne’s free-kick, which sailed over, was The Hoops’ only other attempt – not counting the same player’s toe-poked pass right into the arms of Munro on the stroke of half-time.

Dundalk continued their push for what would have been a deserved goal in the second half with Horgan, following some good link-up with Gullan, firing over from outside the box, not long before the same player saw another attempt trickle wide of the mark.
