Dundalk pay the penalty as Bray shock champions

Dundalk manager Stephen Kenny bemoaned the fact his side hadn’t won a penalty in the league in a year this week then saw his side concede two last night, as Bray Wanderers shocked the champions at Oriel Park.

Two spot kicks from Gary McCabe and a killer third goal from Ryan Brennan ensured a huge victory for the Seagulls as they moved level on points with the champions, who now trail leaders Cork City by nine points.

Referee Jim McKell was booed off at the end by the large home support, who were infuriated by both decisions, which could have a huge bearing on this season’s title race.
