Shamrock Rovers remain two points clear at the top of the Airtricity league after they came from behind to defeat St Patrick's Athletic 3-2 in dramatic fashion at Tallaght Stadium.

Despite Shamrock Rovers dominating possession and chances, it was St Pat's winger Martin Doyle who gave them the lead in the 28th minute.

In added time of the first half, defender Lee Grace levelled the game for Shamrock Rovers heading into the interval. While the away side did their best to keep Stephen Bradley's side out, Richie Towell's strike in the 68th minute looked to turn the game around for the champions.

However, with five minutes remaining, St Pat's levelled through substitute Ben McCormack, as they looked to have shared the points.
