Shels fire warning with first win

UCD 1, Shelbourne 3 (result)

Shels fired a warning to their title pretenders with this superb first league win of season.

Pat Fenlon's side were good value for their half time lead which didn't come until deep into stoppage time.

UCD only partially cleared Richie Baker's cross from the left and Stuart Byrne arrived to drill a low shot past Barry Ryan from the edge of the area.

College old boy Tony McCarthy fired home the second on 56 minutes before Stephen Geoghegan hit the goal of the game with a spectacular bicycle kick 13 minutes later.

Tony McDonnell got UCD's consolation goal ten minutes from time as they drop to bottom of the table.
