James Akintunde seals comeback win for Derry against Bohemians

Derry City super sub James Akintunde sealed another come-from-behind win at Bohemians.

Ruaidhri Higgins' men had to battle back after Liam Burt had given the home side the lead, but second-half goals from Ronan Boyce and Akintunde secured the late, late victory.

The home side started on the front foot and they went close to breaking the deadlock in stunning fashion but Grant Horton's fantastic long-range strike was tipped over by City keeper Brian Maher.

Derry themselves had a glorious chance on six minutes as Brandon Kavanagh's teasing right-wing centre into the Bohs six-yard box was inches away from an unmarked Jamie McGonigle.

The hosts then took the lead in fantastic style on 25 minutes as they scored a goal of the season contender when some crisp one touch passing ended with Liam Burt picking up possession from Ali Coote inside the Derry penalty box, before side-stepping past Eoin Toal and drilling the ball home from 10 yards.
