Jimmy nails it as Cork City edge Sligo Rovers

Cork City 1 Sligo Rovers 0

With Dundalk strolling to a facile victory in Limerick, it was imperative City got three points last night but just as it looked like Sligo might hold on for a draw against an out-of-sorts home side, Keohane popped up with the winner two minutes after coming off the bench.

Sligo’s defence looked comfortable for most of the night with Patrick McLean and Kyle Callan-McFadden looking relatively untroubled but one lapse of concentration from Callan-McFadden, when he failed to control Colm Horgan’s cross, gave Keohane a sniff.
