Things are looking
good in Phibsborough as well for Keith Long the Gypsies Boss doing his best to
deliver notable and important results in their quest of a magnificent campaign
finish.
After a long break
for several clubs in the Airtricity League of Ireland, for several of its squads
involved in the knockout rounds in the Europa and Champions League, this
weekend everything got back to normal.
With several matches,
scheduled, one got the overall attention and it was the Dublin Derby between
archrivals Shamrock Rovers and the Bohemians FC, playing in Tallaght and with certain
dominance by the Hoops.
Very well, the local
Rovers before this match labeled as the overall favorites and winners over the
league defending champions the Dundalk Lilywhites, all the odds favored the
Tallagh squad.
However, Stephen
Bradley the Hoops Boss did not hesitated how its guests were to display a one
of a kind series of performances in the pitch and deliver the unthinkable of a
scandalous win.
If I meant notable,
it was a night for Long and company to endure after a series of changes made by
the Bohs manager to see if his Boys deliver.
At the end, they
persevere!
So far for Keith Long,
the Bohs manager aims is to move up in the overall table, as one of his most notable
phases was to keep his squad away from the relegation spots, now the focus is
to end among the top three in the end.
For the Bohs Nigerian
connection in Ishmail Akinade and Fuad Sule, these two contributed to their
squad win over the Hoops and breaking a certain dominance exercised by the
Tallaght Boys over them.
Despite the Shamrock
Rovers side missing a couple of players in Roberto Lopes and Captain Ronan
Finn, the local Hoops did miss their players considered important for this
squad in their to contend for the top three spots.
Still the night
belonged to the visiting Dalymont squad, with a nice play as it rehearsed as an
astute Dinny Corcoran performed a nice back heel pass and Ishmail Akinade did
the rest with a push for the opening score that left many in awe in the Hoops
side.
With just 27 minutes
in the clock the visitors were on top of the scoreboard but the lead suddenly
went away for the Bohs when the locals via David McAlister in the 30th to tie the match at one goal apiece going to
halftime.
Despite the locals
efforts in the field and coming near the posts defended by Shane Supple, as Keith
Long seeing a positive effect in his moves and changes in his initial eleven.
When an inspired
Dinny Corcoran delivered in the clutch and score what became the game winner in
the 55-minute and his nine goal of the campaign.
After that, both squads’
managers started doing a series of moves to see if the match had a turnaround
for the best for either Bohs or Hoops, the locals needed at least a goal to
rescue a point with a draw.
Nevertheless, at the
end the visitor’s backfield persevere and deliver a valuable win and on top breaking
their cross-town foes hegemony in the Dublin Derby.
