Fagan’s double helps Pat’s just get over line

St Patrick’s Athletic 3 Bray Wanderers 2

St Patrick’s Athletic ended up hanging on in a match that they really should have won more comfortably to cut the gap to leaders Dundalk to four points.

Bray had only managed 12 league goals before the mid-season break and it was the Saints who were quick to add to their tally of 38 on 13 minutes when Conan Byrne ran on to James Chambers’ raking cross-field ball and squared for Chris Forrester to tap in.
