The Dundalk skipper, who was taken off straight after scoring his third, equalled the club’s all-time goalscoring record, which was first set by Joey Donnelly way back in 1946.
PATRICK HOBAN made history by scoring a hat-trick as Dundalk romped to a 4-1 SSE Airtricity League win over UCD to lift themselves back into the top half of the table.
However, disaster struck on seven minutes for Stephen O’Donnell’s side, as a mix-up between Andy Boyle and Nathan Shepperd presented Jake Doyle with the easiest of tasks of finishing into an empty net and putting the Premier Division’s basement side 1-0 up.
Kelly was once again in the thick of the action shortly after those errant attempts, as it was his cross that was headed by Cameron Elliott and pushed around the post by Moore. O’Donnell’s team continued to pepper the UCD goal; O’Kane wriggled away from two players before crashing an effort off the post, minutes before Elliott showed good composure to evade the challenge of two adversaries, but was foiled in the end by Moore.
