Shelbourne remain top of the league as they battled past Dundalk.

This was game No.100 for Damien Duff as Shelbourne boss but the milestone threatened to turn into a millstone.

Significantly, Shels failed to test Molloy in the first half, allowing him settle into the game, Evan Caffrey placing a header wide, Jarvis curling a shot beyond the kid’s left-hand post after receiving a superb pass from Martin. At the other end, Ryan O’Kane shot over, Shelbourne restricting Dundalk to just one meaningful effort on goal in a first half where their failure to zip the ball quickly enough across the park allowed Dundalk get to the break on level terms.
