Purcell saves point for Rovers

Galway United 1 Shamrock Rovers 1

In-form Tadhg Purcell snatched a dramatic stoppage time equaliser to deprive Galway of a first home win of the season at Terryland Park.

Purcell pounced on 93 minutes to force the ball home after Barry Ferguson had headed down a cross.

Galway appeared on course for victory when Derek Glynn scored for the seventh time in five games to give them the lead on 82 minutes.

John Russell did well to create the opening and the Mayoman chipped past Stephen O'Brien for a fine finish.
