Spot on Quigley makes his mark

Sligo Rovers 3 St Patrick’s Athletic 2

In front of a sell-out attendance of 5,621, referee Damian Hancock’s decision to award the spot kick looked harsh on a St Pat’s side richly deserving of a share of the points as the flight of the ball brought it into contact with skipper Conor Kenna.

But Quigley made no mistake with a cool finish that bridged a 35-year gap and brought hundreds of delirious fans on to the pitch in a glorious eruption of jubilation.
