Bohemians beat newly promoted Cork City at a sold out Turners Cross
The 18-year-old, one of two Lincoln City loanees in Kevin Doherty’s side, placed his lob just over the top.Sean Boyd pounced on a mistake by Ben Curtis to race in on goal, unselfishly squaring the ball to Matty Smith who contrived to shoot wide of an open goal.
Shelbourne continued to take the game to Drogheda on the resumption, Farrell drilling a ball across goal that McCabe had to be alert to gather following good build up play. Louie Annesley’s cross from the left was laid off by Hoban with the inrushing Martin firing to the bottom left hand corner. The hosts had the better of the chances after that with Ryan O’Kane going close either side of half-time but they paid the price for not taking them when Behan – who 48 hours earlier had helped the students to Collingwood Cup success in Larne with a double in a 3-2 final win over UL – stunned the home crowd with a curling 25 yard free kick to the top right hand corner.
Although Colin Healy saw his City team settle well initially, it was Declan Devine’s Bohs side that took the lead in the 19th minute.
