Pats grab a point at Drogheda

Drogheda United 2 St Patrick's Athletic 2

St Pat's came from 2-0 down to earn a vital point and keep their European dream alive.

Mark Quinless, after five minutes, and Declan O'Brien, four minutes before half-time, had Drogheda seemingly in control. But Keith Dunne got St. Pat's back into it on 53 minutes from a Keith Foy cross.

Tony Bird missed a 67th minute penalty for Pat's when blazing high over the bar. But Paul Osam salvaged the point 11 minutes from time when Foy again provided the pass for the big midfielder to stab home.
