Public Tallaght Stadium must wait for the second match of the Irish League to be able to watch Shamrock Rovers this season. They will face Derry City and win the first game.
Shamrock started a campaign at Waterford on Saturday (16/2) and had to wait for Ethan Boyle’s goal on 92 minutes to ensure a 1-2 victory. They were scheduled to go again to the TBD headquarters at the Leinster Senior Cup after the match, but were canceled due to improper field conditions. This is good news because it gives a longer respite to the fleet.
Happy news also spread from the Derry camp which won a landslide victory, 3-0, over UCD through donations from David Parkhouse, Josh Collins, and Eoghan Stokes. Apart from this euphoria, Derry could only finish 8th out of 10 participants last season due to suffering defeats in 12 away games, while the rest were won 5 times and 1 draw.
The record will be overwhelmed by Shamrock’s home record which won 11 wins, 4 draws, and only lost 3 times at Tallaght. They then finished third at the end of the season.
Derry is expected to be not too ambitious with tomorrow’s visit after being beaten by a single goal in the last game despite playing at home. That score was enough to help Shamrock win 3 wins and 1 draw with a 9-1 aggregate.
