Report courtesy of extratime.ie
Galway FC pulled off a major heist at Eamonn Deacy Park on Friday evening when they overcame Shelbourne 2-0 in their First Divison, first-leg play-off thanks to goals from Ryan Connolly and Gary Shanahan.
In the driving seat from the off, Tommy Dunne’s men ensured they gave the biggest home crowd of the season a couple of goals to celebrate as well as the small matter of taking a giant leap towards securing Premier Division football.
Chances fell to Ryan Connolly and Jake Keegan in the opening 45 minutes as a 15 minute spell of Galway pressure edged them closer and closer to a goal. But it would take a rash challenge and some crazy officiating before they got their reward as Shelbourne ‘keeper Nathan Murphy cut down Shanahan who was through on goal, and despite scoring, was awarded a penalty instead.
Thankfully for the mental well-being of every Galway fan present, Connolly was coolness personified as he stuck it away to gift them their first goal.
From there, the visiting side began to play with a bit more purpose, but they rarely looked good enough to slice through the defence. Alex Byrne, Paddy Barrett and Connor Gleeson, in particular were phenomenal in shutting down any threats that came within an inch of their collective radar.
At times, the contest became a bit scrappy, and the fluidity of proceedings certainly weren’t helped by the breezy and damp conditions which made the playing surface greasy and caused a number of players to lose their footing at the worst moments.
But it remained a riveting contest and one that had both sets of supporters on the edge of their seats throughout.
And The Reds continued to plug away, albeit unconvincingly, as Dylan Connolly produced two fine efforts from range to give Gleeson a thing or two to think about, before Conor Murphy had a pop. Then, in the 67th minute, Paddy Barrett was unlucky to see a great header cleared off the line by Adam O’ Connor as the trailing side continued to hold on for dear life.
However, in the dying embers of the clash, Connolly, who’s been instrumental all season, once again produced the goods with an inch-perfect pass to set Shanahan up to seal the win, and this time, he made sure his finish counted.
Next Friday sees Shelbourne host Galway at Tolka Park and they’ll be out for revenge. Hold on to your hats, it’s going to be another cracker.

SSE Airtricity League – Division One Play-Off
Eamonn Deacy Park – Friday, October 17th – KO 7.45pm
In Friday’s first game of the Division One Play-Off, Third plays Second when Shelbourne travel west to play Galway FC at Eamonn DeacyPark. Kick-Off is scheduled for 7.45pm.
On the weekend just gone, Shelbourne travelled to St. Colman’s Park needing at least a draw to confirm their second position in the league, the result of which would be a home fixture for the second of the play-off games. Having been down 2-0 at half-time, it looked as if that might not be the outcome of the final series of games – however, two goals soon after the break brought them back into the game and the final score 3-3 confirmed their runner-up position.
At the Galway FC v Wexford Youths game, played at the same time, the win that would have been necessary for the home team to leapfrog Shelbourne into second place (had the Dublin team faltered), was a step too-far, as that game also ended in a draw 2-2.
Just two weeks ago, Shelbourne and Galway FC played out a 1-1 draw at Tolka Park – the other three games played between them this season ended in a 1-0 win for Shelbourne in each of their visits to the Galway venue, while the Westerners took all three points from their first visit to Tolka Park in August, courtesy of a 2-4 win.
The second game in the First Div Play-offs will take place in Tolka Park the following Friday (24th), with the aggregate score deciding which of the two goes forward to play the 11th team from the Premier Division for a place in the higher tier for the 2015 season.
Shelbourne have two players suspended for this week’s game – Brian Gannon for accumulating four yellow cards and John Sullivan serving an additional game’s suspension having been red-carded in the last game against Galway FC.
Missing through injury will be Darren Tinnelly and Gregg Murray, though back in training following a knee injury received against Shamrock Rovers. Willo McDonagh is rated doubtful.
