Ward keeps cool from the spot to snatch late point for Bohs

Keith Ward scored a stoppage time penalty to salvage a point for Bohemians in a rollercoaster of a Dublin derby at Dalymount Park.

Trailing 2-1 two minutes into added time, Bohs defender Kevin Feely, who’d given away a first half spot kick for a foul on David Cassidy, was tripped by the Shels skipper inside the area. Midfielder Ward held his nerve superbly to send keeper Chris Bennion the wrong way from the spot.

Kevin Dawson thought he’d won it for Shelbourne on 83 minutes. Cassidy put Paddy Kavanagh in on the right and when keeper Andy McNulty could only push away the shot, Dawson was there to fire home.
