Third-placed Bohemians suffered a 2-1 defeat to Sligo Rovers at Dalymount Park after Derek Pender got a straight red card for a foul with 20 minutes to go.

Up to that point, the sides were level with a goal apiece, Romeo Parkes putting Sligo ahead, only for the Bit O’ Red to be pegged back five minutes later by a Conor Levingston strike.

However, Parkes struck back for the away side on the 89th minute to condemn Bohs to a home loss.

There were 18 minutes of time added on to the first half following serious injuries to Dinny Corcoran and Dante Leverock.

It has ended Derry City 4 Finn Harps 0 at the Ryan McBride Brandywell, Ciaron Harkin scoring a hat-trick for the home side, while a first-half goal from Zack Elbouzedi has given Waterford a 1-0 win over UCD at the RSC.
