A really good chance for Smith after Farrell broke through the middle and played him in on goal. However the Scotsman fluffed his lines and blazed the shot over

A scrappy first five minutes or so here. Both sides cancelling each other out at the moment

Back underway in Drogheda

Half-time at Head in the Game Park. Drogheda United 1-1 Shelbourne

Its been an entertaining affair with the interval approaching. It seemed like Shels were more up for it but later in the half Drogheda came into the game, mainly due to the link-up play of Darragh Markey and Rooney down the left

Moylan dribbles down the right and gets a shot off in a good position but scuffs the effort

The Drogs get a deserved equaliser as former Shels duo Rooney and Ryan Brennan link up. A Rooney cross from the left trickles through to Brennan who finishes excellently. The home side revitalised currently

Matty Smith causing some problems for the Drogheda back line and his deflected only just stayed over the bar. The hosts come up the other end then and go close after a bit of a scramble in the box. Game picking up its pace again from the early minutes

Shane Farrell is the next player to need attention. A very stop-start affair so far

Both players ok to continue

Moylan and Keith Cowan also down now after a distressing head clash in the air

A big blow for Damien Duff as Sean Boyd is forced to leave the pitch through injury. John Ross Wilson replaces him as the team adjusts shape

Drogheda finding their rhythm now. Dayle Rooney is looking like a right menace down the left wing

Shels on top here and well worth the lead, playing with more hunger and intensity so far

The visitors lead already after sloppy play from George Poynton. He failed to deal with the pressure of Jack Moylan, who dispossessed Poynton, broke through on goal and slotted it home

Dylan Grimes tests Brendan Clarke early on with a commendable effort from range

We're off in Louth!
