Twigg on the double for classy Rovers

ON A night in which Shamrock Rovers paid tribute to their late supporter Philip Greene, they eventually produced a performance the old RTÉ commentator would have been gushing about.

After Craig Sives opened the scoring with a set-piece header, returning striker Gary Twigg finished off two passing moves of the highest quality.

Many, of course, would have predicted that given the differences in resources — and points — between Rovers and Drogheda. But it took a while for that to be the case last night.
