Shamrock Rovers Blank Candystripes In Critical League Contest

At Dublin, Ireland:

Rohan Ricketts scored the only goal of the match in the 50th minute as Shamrock Rovers defeated visiting Derry City 1-0 in the lone Thursday League of Ireland Premier Division contest, enabling them to open up a four-point lead on second-place Sligo atop the league standings with two games remaining.  The loss effectively eliminated the Candystripes from the title race with three games left.
