Drogheda United 0 Bohemians 2:BOHEMIANS MADE it four wins from four against Drogheda in the league with this comfortable victory. In a mediocre first half there was little in the way of goalmouth action as both sides struggled to create chances in front of an attendance of 870.

Just when it appeared this dreary affair would be goalless at the interval, the visitors hit the front after Owen Heary stole in at the back post to send a bullet-like header to the net from Killian Brennan’s free.

Within minute of the start of the second half, some calamitous defending allowed Glen Cronin in to shot home for the second.

Robert Bayly, Aidan Downes and substitute Chris Fagan all had chances to make the margin of victory even more comprehensive but fortunately for Drogheda the scoreline remained respectable.
