Derry City claimed their first win of the Premier Division season and have gone top of the table after a massive result against defending champions Shamrock Rovers.

Will Patching fired the Candystripes ahead in the 55th minute before Dylan Watts equalised for the visitors, Jamie McGonigle scored late in injury time to claim the three points for the Ulster side, however.
