Longford earn gutsy point at Dalymount Park

Bohemians 0 Longford Town 0

Battling Longford will bring their survival hopes into the last game of the season as they earned a gutsy point at Dalymount Park.

Longford had the better of the first half and should have been rewarded with the lead goal on 35 minutes.

Sean Prunty's long ball caught out the Bohs defence to put Dave Mooney in the clear, but the league's topscorer, in one-on-one with Brian Murphy, shot wide.

Glen Crowe had as good a chance for Bohs minutes before half-time but also put his effort wide.

Bohs were better on the resumption and Corwe brought a save from Shay Kelly before Fergal Harkin, captain on his final home appearance, shaved the bar with a cross.

Longford must now win their last match at home to Derry City and hope Waterford lost at Shamrock Rovers if they are to make the play-off and avoid immediate relegation.
