SSE Airtricity Premier Division: Shelbourne 2 Shamrock Rovers 2After swapping four goals in a thrilling first half, Shelbourne and Shamrock Rovers failed to deliver on further promise in the second as they had to settle for a point apiece from a compelling Dublin derby at Tolka Park. The Drumcondra side were thus keen to get back on track while Rovers looked to build further momentum. Continuing the helter-skelter start to the game, Rovers then fully availed of some foolhardiness by Wessel Speel to equalise seven minutes later. SHELBOURNE: Speel; Gannon (Bone, 65), Ibsen Rossi, Ledwidge, Norris; Kelly, Lunney (Jarvis, 77), McInroy (Henry-Francis, 55), Lundgren (Coote, 55); Wood; Martin (Boyd, 65). SHAMROCK ROVERS: McGinty; Grace, Lopes, C. O’Sullivan; Sobowale (Brennan, 68), Malley (Byrne, 68), Healy, Watts (Ozhianvuna, 77), Grant; Greene (Burke, 68), McGovern (M. Noonan, 68).
