Athlone Town returned to the top of the SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division after a hard-fought 2-1 win away to Shamrock Rovers.
As scoreless draws go it was entertaining and full-blooded, as expected from a Dublin derby before a sellout 5,015 attendance, but the result was one neither side would have wanted as they both remain in the bottom half of the table.
Sligo Rovers delivered the latest blow to Shamrock Rovers' hopes of a fifth title in a row as former Hoops winger Simon Power struck twice in the space of 10 minutes to see off his old side.
Waterford finally broke Dundalk's defensive resolve at Oriel Park to give their European ambitions a major shot in the arm, as they secured a well-earned 2-0 away win.
Shelbourne stayed top, Derry City now looking the only real danger in the title race, even if they rode their luck a shade against ten-man Galway United.
Cork City's cushion atop the First Division table was padded out to 13 points thanks to an edgy 1-0 victory over Bray Wanderers in front of 2,026 fans at Turner’s Cross.
Derry City produced a five-star performance to easily see off bottom side Drogheda United at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.
The LOI mid-season break only lasts a week, yet feels a moment to take stock for nearly every club.
