Bohs leave door open for Shels

Bohemians 1 Drogheda United 1

Gary O'Neill scored a late equaliser to earn injury-hit Bohs a point.

But it's a result that means Shelbourne can move to within two points of leaders Bohs ahead of next week's title showdown at Tolka Park if they win their back match with Longford on Tuesday.

Drogheda shocked Bohs to take the lead against the run of play on 20 minutes.

Gary Cronin's corner was perfection as left-back Stephen Gray rose well to head home.

Bohs threw everything at Drogheda after the break and it finally paid off on 82 minutes when O'Neill forced the ball home after good work by Kevin Hunt and Mark Rutherford.
