Bohemians break Kerry hearts to advance in FAI Cup

Brave Kerry bowed out of the FAI Cup at Mounthawk Park on Sunday - but not without a fight.
The Kingdom came from behind twice to draw 2-2 in 120 minutes before losing 4-2 on penalties in Tralee in front of 1,100 supporters.
James Clarke gave Bohs a 22nd minute lead when he headed home from a Dayle Rooney corner-kick.

But Ryan Kelliher equalised soon after after getting on the end of a Cian Barrett delivery across the six-yard box.
Bohs soon retook the lead on the stroke of half-time with Alex Greive scoring for the visitors.
However, Kelliher scored his 15th goal of the season in the season after pouncing on a Kacper Chorazka mistake - which in effect forced penalties.

It was there when the Gypsies prevailed, with Ross Tierney, Dawson Devoy, Danny Grant and Declan McDaid all scoring their spot-kicks.
Kennedy Amechi and Barrett both missed decisive efforts for the Kingdom.
But it was a proud day for Kerry boss Conor McCarthy.
“Even though we have lost the game, you will have a lot worse days than that. The performance.. There were Bohs fans there and they were clapping them off the pitch,” he said after the game when speaking to the media.
“That doesn’t happen very often, being clapped off the pitch. The way it ended is a sick one for us but to come from where we have in the last two years is unbelievable.”
