Galway United 0 Shelbourne 0

Shelbourne have opened the door again for the chasing pack as they failed to beat dogged Galway in a poor game at Terryland Park.

In a match of few chances, Pat Fenlon created Shels first opening on the hour but shot wide.

Galway responded immediately with Ollie Keogh wasting their clearest opening.

Home keeper David Forde then made the only real save of the game to thwart

James Keddy on 66 minutes as Galway held on for the point that secures their Premier Division status.

Bohemians or St. Patrick's can move to within three points of Shels with a win on Saturday night.

First Division

Athlone Town 2 (Myler 59, McCormack 94) Monaghan United 3 (Smyth 1, Rogers 21, McKenna 22)
