Dunleavy to rescue for City

An 87th minute goal from John Dunleavy rescued a point for Cork City at Tallaght Stadium last night.

City looked to be heading home empty-handed when Gary Twigg opened the scoring for the Hoops two minutes earlier but another defensive lapse from the title holders saw them fail to take advantage of Sligo’s dropped points against Bohemians.

The visitors arrived in rude health after encouraging results in both league and cup competitions as they looked to improve on their 1-1 draw against the title holders earlier in the campaign.
