Rogers redeemed but Saints still slip up

HAVING given away a needless penalty, Gary Rogers can still reflect this morning that his main attributes as a goalkeeper have surely kept St Patrick’s in Europe.

Rogers recklessly hauled down ex-Iceland international Tryggvi Gudmundsson five minutes into the second half for IBV captain Andri Olafsson to calmly send the keeper the wrong way from the spot.

Rogers, though, redeemed himself with two terrific saves inside a minute.
