Jordan Flores scored a penalty and back-post header in 2-1 victory at Tolka Park.
David Sneyd reports from Tolka Park Shelbourne 1 Bohemians 2 SHELBOURNE ’S UNBEATEN START to the season came to an end in front of their own fans as a Jordan Flores double proved enough to take these Dublin derby spoils for Bohemians .
In his fourth game in charge since replacing Declan Devine, Bohs boss Alan Reynolds secured a second victory at the home of the team who had set a fierce pace. It’s a result that moves Bohs into fifth, three points off second place, and Shels only have themselves to blame. Advertisement Gavin Molloy, imperious so far this season, seemed to misjudge the flight of the ball and that was all the Bohs striker needed to increase the confusion.
The travelling fans in the Ballybough End were delirious too when they watched Flores rise unmarked at the back post from Dayle Rooney’s corner.As Rooney took his first step to deliver the set-piece Flores began his run from near the penalty spot. If so, it was exploited perfectly and an indication of what might be to come as Alan Reynolds continues to put his stamp on the Phibsborough outfit.
