A stoppage-time equaliser from captain Joel Redmond earned a point for St Pats in their 2-2 draw with Shamrock Rovers at Richmond Park.

Derry City condemned Galway United to a 3-2 defeat at Eamonn Deacy Park - the hosts had Cian Byrne sent off early in the second half.

Sligo Rovers are off the bottom of the table, beating 10-man Waterford 4-0 at the RSC.
