Eircom League: Rovers go back to the top
Shamrock Rovers 3 Shelbourne 0
Rovers cruised back to the top of the table as Shels had two players sent-off within 39 minutes in a crazy game.
Jim Gannon was the first to see red for Shels following a dreadful challenge on Derek Tracey.
Tracey also went off injured, but his replacement Pat Deanes headed Rovers
in front on 26 minutes.
Peter Hutton then saw red for a deliberate handball as Marc Kenny tried to
chip the ball home with keeper Steve Williams down injured.
Williams was also taken off on a stretcher to hospital after his clash with Tony Grant and Marc Kenny scored from the resultant penalty.
Kenny then added the third from a stunning free-kick in first-half stoppage time.
