Derry City & Sligo Rovers both maintained their unbeaten start to the new season as they played out a 0-0 draw at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.
Peaky senior headed up to the Brandywell for his first league of Ireland experience. It did not disappoint. A penalty, free kick and a last minute winner left the home fans delirious. What a night, I will be back for more. Thank you to Derry City for providing access around the ground.
