Shamrock Rovers edged closer to bagging the SSE Airtricity Men's Premier Division title on Friday evening.

Danny Mandriou scored the winner in the second half, for a 2-1 win over Bohemians at Tallaght Stadium.

They still have to wait to secure the title, though, as Derry City managed to pick up a 1-1 draw at Drogheda United.

Elsewhere, Galway United got a much-needed 2-1 win over Cork City at Eamonn Deacy Park.

Shelbourne also beat Waterford 2-1 at Tolka Park.

In the First Division, it finished Bray Wanderers 0, Longford Town 2; Cobh Ramblers 4, Finn Harps 1; Dundalk 3, UCD 2; Kerry 1, Treaty United 1; and Athlone Town 1, Wexford 2.
