Drogs earn deserved point

Drogheda United 1 Sporting Fingal 1

Garreth O'Connor earned second from bottom Drogheda a deserved point as they came from behind against high-flying Sporting at Hunky Dorys Park.

Ronan Finn put Sporting ahead on eleven minutes when Eamon Zayed robbed Damien Brennan to set up the midfielder to shoot past Paul Skinner.

But Drogheda battled back and levelled on 70 minutes when O'Connor beat Darren Quigley with a terrific long range shot.

Drogheda might then have won it at the death but for a marvelous save by Quigley from Glenn Fitzpatrick.
