Bohemians secured a 1-0 victory against Shamrock Rovers in a historic Dublin derby witnessed by a record League of Ireland crowd of 33,208 at the Aviva Stadium. New signing Connor Parsons's pace proved instrumental in setting up the winning goal for Ross Tierney.
In front of a record League of Ireland crowd, Bohemians ’ new signings linked up to claim the honours in a historic Dublin derby.
A promising opening yielded a couple of long-range efforts by Graham Burke, but both were struck straight at Bohemians goalkeeper James Talbot. While Bohs’ congested final third required Rovers to poke and prod, and generally be more patient in their build-up play, there was far more space at the other end of the pitch.
Goalkeeper Ed McGinty managed to divert the shot onto the post, but the rebound fell kindly to Ross Tierney who smashed the ball into the net from three yards. He too showed an eagerness to make runs behind the defence and was always alert to potential opportunities.
