Pat’s hit five to go five points clear

St Patrick’s Athletic 5 UCD 0

Goals from Killian Brennan, Conan Byrne, Chris Forrester and a brace from Jake Kelly blew UCD away in the second half at Richmond Park as Liam Buckley’s side capitalised fully on champions Sligo Rovers losing at home to Dundalk.

Away to the league leaders they may have been, but Martin Russell’s UCD weren’t lacking in confidence in coming to Inchicore on the back of an unbeaten four-match run and they carved out the first opening that should have brought them the lead on 10 minutes.
