City setback as late goal gives Lilies title edge

Premier Division:

Dundalk had led for most of the match following Richie Towell’s early strike but City looked to have grabbed a point when Darren Dennehy headed home his brother Billy’s long free-kick six minutes from time.

However, Dundalk went straight up the other end and, following a goalmouth scramble, Gartland poked the ball home to put Dundalk in pole position to claim their first title since the 1994/1995 season.
