The Dublin side recorded a 1-0 win at home to Drogheda United.
BOHEMIANS MADE IT three wins in their last three against a dogged and determined Drogheda United as the Rennie revolution rolled on.
Gypsie’s boss Alan Reynolds has certainly been utilising his squad with three tough games in a week, making another six changes to the side that overcame Dundalk on Monday night and despite dominating possession in a tetchy opening period never looked like troubling Jethran Barr in the visitors’ goal as their continued attempts at a ball over the top drew frustrated groans.
The surprising deployment of Adam McDonnell in the number 10 role brought about an abundance of energy in the Bohs final third often running beyond strike Akintunde causing confusion in the Drogs rearguard.Looking relatively comfortable with the one goal cushion approaching the break, the home side almost found themselves on level terms when, following a bit of head tennis in the area, Ryan Brennan saw his acrobatic effort sail just over the bar, sending a reminder of the threat they possessed.
The home side started the second half much sharper and had two good chances to add to their lead. Firstly, McDonnell made a lung bursting run over the top before squaring to Dayle Rooney who was snuffed out at the last second. Moments later the ex-Drogheda man dragged a low strike just wide of the post from the edge of the area.
