Having welcomed his first child into the world earlier in the day, Stephen O’Donnell was winning no matter what transpired here in Tallaght.
Clarke made a slew of brilliant second-half interventions to thwart Graham Burke, Lee Grace and Sean Kavanagh, twice. What stock Stephen Bradley places in the game remains to be seen, considering the Hoops’ seismic FAI Cup semi-final away to Bohs four days later. But it was a sign of things to come for the visitors who worked goalkeeper Alan Mannus twice in quick succession.
But Rovers closed out the half strongly, with Burke forcing Clarke into the first of his catalogue of saves on the stroke of half-time.
