Bohemians – Shelbourne

The Irish Premier Division clash at Dalymount Park ended in a lively 2‑2 draw, leaving Bohemians perched in third place with 53 points from 15 wins, eight draws and seven defeats, while Shelbourne remain sixth on 36 points after eight victories, twelve draws and nine losses. Both sides matched each other’s attacking output, with Bohemians’ goal tally improving to 53 for the season against 36 conceded, and Shelbourne edging slightly ahead on goals scored at 37 despite a slightly poorer defensive record of 40. The result preserved the existing head‑to‑head balance for the campaign, where Bohemians have the edge with one win to Shelbourne’s none and two stalemates. The point each club salvaged keeps Bohemians within striking distance of the top two, while Shelbourne’s haul maintains their push for a European spot.
