Dundalk keep up momentum as Galway's troubles grow

Dundalk 2 Galway Utd 0: Goals in either half from Dane Massey and Patrick McEleney saw Dundalk continue their positive momentum at Oriel Park last night as they left Galway Utd rooted to the bottom of the Premier Division.

The Lilywhites have now won three in-a-row without conceding since returning from the mid-season break and this result saw them open up a seven-point lead over third placed Bray Wanderers, who they meet in the Carlisle Grounds on Friday night.

Crucially it was also another good momentum builder ahead of next month’s Champions League double header against Norwegian champions Rosenborg.
