Stephen Kenny: We’ve had our bad night

Dundalk 0 Sligo Rovers 3: Dundalk boss Stephen Kenny has backed his side to bounce back from the heaviest home defeat of his reign by beating Cork City in tomorrow night’s potential title decider at Oriel Park.

“It’s a bad night for us but where we are now is that we had a four-point lead, now it’s a point,” said Kenny after their 3-0 defeat to Sligo Rovers.

“We’ve Cork at home on Tuesday. In the past over the last couple of years we’ve always rose to the occasion in the big games and put in a performance that merited a victory. We’re going to have to dig deep now and do that on Tuesday.
