UCD 1-2 Bohemians:Bohemians came back from the brink with two late goals from Jason Byrne and Raffaele Cretaro to deny UCD in their Premier Division game at Belfield tonight.

Remarkably both Bohs’ goals came in the space of 30 seconds with less than eight minutes left on the clock.

The double strike was a bitter blow for the students, who had taken the lead through Greg Bolger earlier in the half – he converted from the penalty spot on 57 minutes after Ciaran Kilduff was fouled by Bohs goalkeeper Chris O'Connor.

Bolger’s night quickly turned sour after he was sent-off for a second bookable offence after 68 minutes.

Byrne came on as a substitute and fired home the equaliser on 82 minutes before Cretaro quickly followed-up with the winner.

Elsewhere St Patrick's Athletic were 2-0 winners over Shamrock Rovers in Tallaght.
