Very well indeed, is
the word to describe a squad that so far in two matches has managed to score a total
of nine goals and keeping a close pursuit of Cork City and Dundalk FC.
Alive and Kicking as
that Simple Minds songs states as the way those Dublin Boys from the Shamrock
Rovers are playing lately with a certain conviction of excellence.
For the Cumann Peile Ruagairí na Seamróige riding high after an afternoon of a lot of highs
and well put on an offensive show at Tallaght in front of their faithful, these
club is poised for the league top.
So far seeded in third place just a point
behind Cork City placed currently on second and for the league top held
currently by Dundalk FC and four points behind, this league top spot can be anyone’s
as after the Lilywhites succumb at home over a hardened Bohs.
This time the Candy Stripes from Derry City
or the Cumann Peile Chathair Dhoirewere the ones that took the wrath
of goals from an offensive Hoops attack that their only mission is to pulverize
their opponent’s goals.
A meritorious win and a 4-1 score with
scores in the 11th by Micheal Drennan, Gary McCabe 49th,
Marty Waters 55th and Brandon Miele on the 65th were enough
to a lone score from the visitors Ryan Curran discounted on the 85th.
Preventing a clean sheet for the Rovers
goalie Craig Hyland that all afternoon didn’t had the worries of an all-around offensive
attack from the Candy Stripes who lacked a certain direction that didn’t took advantage
after the Rovers had a man sent off in the 80th minute.
This win is an encore of last week at
Tallaght when the Hoops victimize a clueless Sligo Rovers with another massive
score of 5-1, something that’s becoming a trend for the Dublin Boys in each
match played lately.
Maybe on their next match against their
cross town rival’s Bohemian FC they will play a very heated and epic of Derbies
like this match were these two Dublin squads always stage in their venues, this
time the Rovers will play as a visiting entity at Dalymont Stadium.
Something that for the Shamrock Rovers Boss
Pat Fenlon will take as an overall challenge after both sides drew a scoreless
match in their first meeting as well try to avenge last campaign defeats from a
renewed Gypsies squad.
Still for the Rover Manager closing the first
half break of the Airtricity League with a win will be a full shoot in the arm for
him and his chaps seeking to bring to the halls of Tallaght some silverware not
seen for quite some time.
Especially the always coveted Airtricity
League Shield that the Hoops can play the role of spoilers to their Dundalk FC rival’s
in denying them their second league shield as well win it in a back to back fashion.
One serious club is what the Shamrock Rovers
are in this 2015 campaign that so far are looking like a force not to mess with
as well a contender in the works to win it all that comes their way, hail for the
Rovers.
