James Cox

Drogheda United are once again at the summit of the SSE Airtricity Premier Division table.

That is after they beat Cork City 3-2 this evening. It was a last gasp win as Ryan Brennan converted a 96th-minute penalty.

St Pat's missed out on the chance to go top as they lost 1-0 away to Derry City, who are in third place.

Danny Mullen scored the goal for the home side at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium in the 48th minute.

Shamrock Rovers are second after their 2-0 win over Sligo Rovers at Tallaght Stadium thanks to goals from Graham Burke and Aaron Greene.

Elsewhere, Bohemians came from behind to win 2-1 against Galway United at Eamonn Deacy Park and Waterford enjoyed a 1-0 victory over the reigning champions Shelbourne at Tolka Park.
