Shamrock Rovers 1 UCD 1
Shamrock Rovers' poor run continued as they needed a late equaliser to snatch a point against UCD at Tolka Park.
Rovers made changes from the defeat in Cobh last week with Karl Coleman coming into goal while Barry Ferguson was also left out.
But it scarcely mattered as they found themselves a goal down on 25 minutes. Danny O'Connor fouled Shane Fitzgerald some 20 yards out and Derek Doyle found the net with a super left-footed free-kick.
Rovers battled back into the game in the second half. Tadhg Purcell had a penalty saved by Matt Gregg before Padraig Amond snatched an 88th minute leveller, shooting home Dessie Baker's pass.
