The result all but consigns Liam Buckley’s charges to a relegation play-off.
THE ROT HAS finally stopped for Dundalk tonight after they recorded a comprehensive 5-0 win over Cork City in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division.
The result all but consigns Liam Buckley’s charges to a relegation play-off, while for Dundalk, their faint European hopes are kept alive with five fixtures left to complete. Indeed, Horgan was the source of Dundalk’s opener on 18 minutes – his free-kick from the left, dummied by Paul Doyle, was headed home at the back post by defender Muller.And it was 2-0 after 27 minutes, with an attempted header back to goalkeeper Byrne from Conor Drinan falling straight into the path of Horgan, who subsequently fired home from close range to score his first league goal since returning to the club.
Cork’s best chance of the opening half came when Ruairi Keating, who managed to get himself in ahead of Greg Sloggett, crashed an effort off the post before on the rebound, keeper Nathan Shepperd brilliantly denied Joe O’Brien-Whitmarsh at point-blank range. Durrant was proving to be a menacing presence out on the left flank for Dundalk, and the ex-Sheffield Wednesday man forced a decent save out of Byrne when one-on-one.
