Match Report

St Patrick's Athletic 2 - UCD 1

It took two goals into the famous Shed End at Richmond Park in the final minutes from Michael Holt and Liam Kelly for the Supersaints to snatch the three points form UCD.

It was an amazing final few minutes and UCD seemed certain to take all three points after taking a first-half lead through Clive Delaney's tap in from 2 yards.

But Podge Drew thought different and his clever trickery and pin-point cross led to the equaliser as Holty side-footed the ball past a despairing dive by Barry Ryan.

Just when the 'Shed End Invincibles' began celebrating in true Supersaint style, the ball was in the net again in injury time.

Liam Kelly capitalised on a Ryan miss-kick as he raced from his goal and Kelly slotted the ball into the empty net from 6 yards.
