Dundalk are now just two points above Drogheda United at the bottom of the table.
FOR THE THIRD time this season, Dundalk fell to a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Galway United , as The Tribesmen put themselves right back amongst the European picture.
Moments later, a Vincent Borden speculative effort swerved narrowly over the top of Felix Goddard’s goal, however Dundalk would settle themselves into the game after that. At the other end, Ed McCarthy’s long throw-in eventually found its way to frontman Walsh, who turned wide – but it would be all Dundalk for the rest of the opening half.
The lively O’Kane dragged an effort wide from outside the area for Dundalk, while Gullan’s free sailed over the crossbar shortly before the half-time whistle. Ex-Galway midfielder Aodh Dervin’s shot, which stung the hands of Brendan Clarke, was Dundalk’s first and only attempt on target throughout what was a disappointing night.
