Bray Wanderers - 2 Bohemians - 2FAI cup finalists Bohemians came back from the dead to grab a point in last night's clash at the Carlisle Grounds.

Bray looked to be in control thanks to first-half goals from Paul Keegan and substitute Robbie Doyle. It looked like curtains for Bohemians when they had central defender Avery John sent off for a foul on Phillip Keogh in the 44th minute.

But the visitors dug deep. Paul Byrne, on as a substitute for only one minute, sent over a corner from the left which was headed home by Colin Hawkins in the 77th minute. Then a spectacular effort from 45 yards from Byrne rebounded off the crossbar to allow Glen Crowe to shoot home for his 30th goal of the season.

BOHEMIANS: Dempsey; Shelley, Hawkins, John, Webb, Harkin, Hunt, Caffrey, Rutherford, Molloy, Crowe. Subs: P Byrne for Shelley (70 mins); T O'Connor for Molloy (87 mins)
