Bohemians 2-0 Drogheda United: Bohemians maintained their 10-point lead at the top of the Eircom League Premier Division with a 2-0 win over Drogheda United at Dalymount Park tonight.

Mindaugas Kalonas opened the scoring for Pat Fenlon's side after 25 minutes Killian Brennan fired a set piece towards the Drogheda box which was knocked across the goal by Jason Byrne before Kalonas side-footed home from close range.

Seven minutes before the break Crowe got in on the act to head home Bohs second. This time Kalonas was the main provider down the right side as he got the better of Joe Kendrick. From there his cross found Crowe, who headed home his sixth of the season.

The league leaders are now unbeaten in 21 games which means they would have to lose four of their remaining ten games to be caught.
