Goals by Grant Horton and Jordan Flores had the visitors in cruise control, but Ruairi Keating forced a chaotic finish on Leeside.
Cork City 1 Bohemians 2 THE ATMOSPHERE ON Leeside was exactly as raucous as you’d imagine it to be as Cork City made their return to the top-flight stage but it was Grant Horton who made the perfect bow as Bohemians survived a late scare to hold out for a 2-1 victory.
In the end, they were forced to withstand an aerial bombardment into The Shed end, and several last-gasp City chances, before they could exhale and celebrate a job well done overall. City had the first sniff at goal: a long throw by Cian Bargary was flicked on at the near post but Bohs ‘keeper Talbot and the huge away contingent behind him took a collective breath as it looped tantalisingly over the oncoming Tunde Owolabi and wide.
City were attacking The Shed end after the break but it was Bohs who came within a whisker of doubling their lead seconds after the restart, a bullet header from Akintunde whistling inches wide.
