League of Ireland: Burke hat-trick sends Hoops top after Derry drop points
A Graham Burke hat-trick has sent Shamrock Rovers to the top of the SSE Airtricity Premier Division after Derry City dropped points against St Patrick's Athletic.
A second-half hat-trick from Burke helped his side to a 3-1 victory over Sligo Rovers at Tallaght Stadium. His three goals were all scored within 15 minutes.
Aidan Keena got a last gasp goal after 85 minutes for Sligo, but at that stage Burke had done too much damage.
