It was a productive night for the Blues, while Dundalk suffer their 11th defeat of the season. 

A point apiece for the sides at Richmond Park: 

Former Sligo Rovers striker Johnny Kenny missed a couple of great chances against his local club, while Simon Power inspired the Bit O'Red to a win over his old employers. 

The Brandywell faithful were treated to six goals tonight, five of which were scored by their own team:

Five-star Candystripes

With an extra man, Derry City make it 5-1 on 88 minutes – Ciarán Coll scoring after an assist from Paul McMullan. 

A night to forget for Drogheda United. 

Super-sub Power changes the game

Wow, Sligo Rovers are 2-0 up and it's Simon Power again!

The second-half substitute, high on confidence after his first goal, runs at the Shamrock Rovers defence and finds the bottom corner with his strike. 

Penalty miss at Tolka

Aidan Fitzmaurice has the news:

This is just not going to be Galway United's night. Just when they looked to be well beaten, they get a chance away to Shels. 

They're awarded a penalty after sub Maurice Nugent is felled in the box by 'keeper Conor Kearns, but the spot-kick from fellow sub Lomboto was unconvincing – Kearns guesses correctly and makes the save.
