St Pat's Stuns Rovers in Derby Upset | Dublin News

St Patrick’s Athletic stunned the football world with a ruthless 2-0 derby demolition of reigning champions Shamrock Rovers, igniting a seismic shift in the Premier Division title race. Jay McClelland opened the scoring in just four minutes, followed by Aidan Keena’s clinical finish in the 33rd — sealing revenge for three earlier losses to Rovers and adding fuel to their FAI Cup semi-final run. With Shamrock Rovers now reeling after being ten points clear just five weeks ago, St. Pat’s surged into contention, potentially claiming top spot if they beat Dundalk next. Meanwhile, Bohemians clawed back to within three points with a dramatic 3-2 comeback against Galway United, while Rovers’ late pressure was met with rock-solid defense and heroic saves from keeper Joseph Anang. The message is clear: this season’s title race is wide open, and St. Pat’s have proven they’re ready to fight for it.
