Michael Duffy's Free-Kick Secures Derry City's Win Over Bohemians

Michael Duffy's impressive free-kick in the 10th minute led Derry City to a 1-0 victory over Bohemians, marking the team's first win of the season at Brandywell Stadium. The goal was Duffy's second in as many games, continuing his strong record against Bohs with five goals in his last seven encounters. The match turned contentious shortly after the goal, resulting in both managers, Tiernan Lynch and Alan Reynolds, receiving red cards due to a melee sparked by a tackle on Shane Ferguson. Despite a strong start and several opportunities, Bohs failed to capitalize on their chances, including a missed header from Lys Mousset. Derry's defense held firm, ensuring a clean sheet and a positive result after their opening loss to Shelbourne. Next up, Derry City will host Waterford in their upcoming league match.
