League of Ireland round-up: Bohemians moved level on points with St Patrick's Athletic at the top of the League of Ireland standings despite being held to a scoreless draw at Derry City tonight.

Pat Fenlon's side were perhaps second best at the Brandywell, particularly after centre-half Jason McGuinness was dismissed in the 65th minute, but in a match of few clear cut chances held on for their point.

Bohemians' Brian Murphy was the busier of the two goalkeepers, with Sammy Morrow, Gareth McGlynn and Niall McGinn all denied late on as Derry made their numerical advantage tell.

Meanwhile, a last-minute goal secured a rare three points for Galway United at the Carlisle Grounds as Bray were beaten 1-0.

Derek Glynn  was the match-winner for Jeff Kenna's side, applying a neat near post finish after some dogged approach play from strike partner Vinny Faherty.

The win, just Galway's second of a turbulent campaign, lifts them above Cobh Ramblers at the foot of the table.
