Forth welcomed Shamrock Rovers to Matt Ennis park this morning and after a terrific battle came away with the 3 points.

1 up at half time courtesy of Ryan busher but guilty of missing several opportunities to make their dominance count. Second half and rovers pushed on leaving several breakaway opportunities which we failed to capitalise on. Despite appearing in command forth conceded a penalty which hopper converted to level matters.

forth however hit back almost immediately with Ryan B scoring a peach into top right corner. Another mazy run from Ryan then led to a penalty as he was hauled down. Up stepped rossie to convert making it 3-1.

Forth didn’t make it easy on themselves when conceding a sloppy 2nd but saw out the game to the end.
