ANDRE WRIGHT SCORED the only goal as Bohemians consolidated second spot in the Premier Division with a win away to Sligo Rovers.
The only goal of the game came 10 minutes from the end, as Bohs’ promising 18-year-old attacker Dawson Devoy showed his fleet of foot in the penalty area before teeing up Wright for a controlled finish from close range.
Bohs were the better side in the first half and carved out the better chances, with Danny Grant seeing a shot blocked off the line. Sligo had chances of their own – Ronan Coughlan missed a decent chance of his own in the second half – before Dawson and Wright combined to snap a run of back-to-back defeats for Bohs.
