Drogheda United – Galway United

The league clash at United Park saw Drogheda United fall 2‑3 to Galway United in a tight, high‑scoring affair. The defeat leaves the home side on ninth place with 31 points from 30 games, having scored 35 and conceded 48, while Galway move up to seventh with 34 points, their tally improving to 38 goals for and 45 against. Both clubs have already split their head‑to‑head meetings this season, each claiming a win and sharing a draw, so the result simply extends the balance. With Drogheda now three points adrift of the top‑half and Galway edging closer to the playoff spots, the outcome keeps the mid‑table race very much alive.
