SLIGO ROVERS BEAT Bohemians 3-1 this evening to extend their lead at the top of the table to nine points.
Ian Barclough’s men went 3-0 ahead in the first half, thanks to goals from Mark Quigley, Raffaele Cretaro and Lee Lynch.
Bohs hit back late in the second half through Keith Ward, however it proved too little, too late for the visitors.
And in tonight’s other game at Richmond Park, St Patrick’s Athletic were made to work for a 3-0 win over Derry City.
It wasn’t all plain sailing for the hosts, as they didn’t open the scoring until the 57th minute, when Sean O’Connor put them in the lead.
Jake Kelly then scored a decisive second goal with just under five minutes remaining, before Vinny Faherty put the icing on the cake with a third in injury time.
I got clubs most improved player at under 12s surely I must be expectating a 6 figure salary in china
€14000 Euro is about 101k Chinese Yuan so you could probably earn that teaching English over there if you accepted an offer as a teacher. Can you afford to turn down a six figure sum like that?
if that lad is worth 20m a year, i am surely worth the avg industrial wage am i ?
I had trials with Monaghan Utd, EMFA, Home Farm Everton and Newcastle West AFC once upon a time like…….
@Liam Dunne: ah he is ☺ juventus will be delighted to hear about him cheering them on.
What a waste of talent, this is going to be. This kid can and should be playing for one of the great european sides. Instead he has gone to chase cash in the Chinese Football pub league
If someone came along and offered you insane money to go to china to to your everyday job,you wouldn’t be interested?
The only reason those European teams are great is because they have the financial clout to go out and buy the best players available to them. What’s happening now is a long overdue case of what goes around comes around.
He went to Zenit for a big wage also, this lad has always put money first!
He’ll be able to look after his family for generations. In 60 years time that will be more important than whether he played a game for an Italian or a Chinese team.
The epitome of the modern day footballer, this youngster. Here’s a player regularly in the first XI of a nation that spent about a year in the top 2 of the FIFA rankings, who has only ever played in the Belgian, Portuguese and Russian leagues. And now he’s off to China.
His ambition is questionable at best, and his love of vast wealth not under any doubt. He went to Zenit for 40 million, so his family can’t be short a few bob.
How long before Continho goes ….
Old news this
Really? He signed 2 hours ago.
Fair play to him. A couple of years in China on mega money and return back to Europe.
