Kilduff and O’Connor see off Drogs

Drogheda United 0 Shamrocks Rovers 2

Goals early in each half from Ciaran Kilduff and Sean O’Connor handed Shamrock Rovers a comfortable win in a low key Premier Division clash at blustery United Park.

For a team with nothing but pride to play for, Rovers came out all guns blazing and Kilduff had a fierce 25 yards shot pushed away by Michael Schlingermann inside the first minute. Ronan Finn then fired menacingly across the six yard box and it was no surprise when the Hoops hit the front on four minutes.
