Sava saves day for Dundalk

Derry City 1 Dundalk 2

The visitors broke the deadlock in the 26th minute when George Poynton set up the lively David McMillan who worked his way across the 18-yard line before producing a superb left foot strike which flew into the top corner.

Rory Patterson should have equalised in the 59th minute but he failed to make contact with the ball and 10 minutes later the Derry striker was through again but his shot was blocked by Sava.
