Galway put end to Cork City’s great winning run

Galway 1 Cork City 1: It was unlucky 13 for Cork City last night as their 100% start to the season came to an end at the hands of a gritty Galway United in Eamonn Deacy Park.

The home side were fully deserving of their point, even if they were desperately holding on at the end as their efforts from the first hour of the game took its toll.

City had weathered that United storm to take a 59th minute lead, but the home side were back on level terms within 90 seconds, and try as they could, City couldn’t find a second goal to preserve their perfect start to the season.
