Galway took an early lead through Jimmy Keohane's well-placed strike, but Derry equalized just before halftime with a goal from Dipo Akinyemi, assisted by Brandon Fleming. Jamie Stott's second yellow card left Derry a man down in the closing minutes, but substitute Adam O'Reilly scored a stoppage-time winner to complete the comeback. The match featured moments of brilliance from Michael Duffy and Brandon Fleming, whose crosses created key chances for Derry. Both teams struggled with difficult weather conditions, and Galway had chances including a crossbar hit in the final moments, but Derry's resilience and late goal secured their first league win in five games. The victory places Derry three points behind second-place Bohemians and 10 points behind leaders Shamrock Rovers, strengthening their bid for European football next season.
