It's been a topsy-turvy year at Oriel Park and tonight's game was in keeping with the chaotic nature of their 2020 season

Nothing has come easily to Dundalk this season, so why would their biggest game in four years be any different?

But Dundalk weathered the storm as the rain spilled down and Kelly's opportunistic strike 12 minutes from time gave the breathing space they craved.It was chaotic at times - again, in keeping with this roller-coaster season that the club is having. "Better than promotion to the Premier League," was how Sean Murray pictured what qualification would feel like last week.

This time the feeling was that Dundalk would win if they struck first, such was their level of control over proceedings. But this also meant everything to the Dundalk players who appeared to be on a downward spiral after their Champions League defeat to Celje in Hungary.
