Bohs take time to get the better of Buccs

FOR 80 minutes at Thomond Park on Saturday, UL Bohemians and Buccaneers threw the AIB League points at each other.

The home side created enough chances in the first half to win a dozen matches but for some inexplicable reason, they turned over trailing by 8-7 after bringing the art of scorning gilt-edged scoring opportunities to a fine art.

As the second half meandered along in a haphazard and patternless fashion, it looked as if that would also be the final score.
