report from sports.com

46 And it's all over for the first-half.
45 Stephen Grant created space for himself and offloaded to Jason Colwell 14 yards out. He might have done better but pulled his shot across the Bohs goal.
45 Another great chance for the Hoops who are pulling themselves right back into this game.
44 But Michael Dempsey gathers with a good catch.
44 Rovers are starting to put on the pressure now and they've won another corner which Billy Woods will take on the right.
43 Big chance for Rovers. Great cross from Billy Woods on the left and Tony Grant is unluck to find his flick on cleared off the line by Dave Hill.
42 Bohs concede the free-kick though and Costello will launch deep into the Gypsies half.
42 Bohs have had the better of the openings. They need the points a lot more than Rovers and they're certainly going for it.
41 Lots of action from both sides but they just can't make their chances count on the scoreboard.
37 Folan really has been the best player on the pitch so far and he looks a good signing by Pete Mahon.
37 Tony O'Dowd eventually gathers from Folan's long-range effort.
36 Folan with the free-kick on the right for Bohs this time. Another good ball in but Dave Hill can't do anything with it at the back post.
36 He lets fly with a right-footed curler and it's only inches over. Great effort.
35 Tony Folan is on the ball again for Bohs, ducking and diving down the left wing.
35 It's a good ball in to the back post and Terry Palmer is up to there to get a head on it. But it's well wide on the right of goal.
33 Rovers are on the attack themselves. And Billy Woods has won them the corner.
32 Great chance for Bohs. Dave Morrison almost opened the scoring with a good header but his header squirts agonisingly wide.
30 Former Nottingham Forest youth Anthony Shevlin is excelling at the back for Bohs. And he's there to cut out another ball in this time.
29 Bohs make nothing of the free-kick and the Hoops launch their won attack.
28 Rovers really haven't got going yet and Terry Palmer is lucky not to have seen yellow for a challenge from behind on Glen Crowe too.
27 This time Molloy opts to play long one in and Glen Crowe is unlucky to skim his close range header wide.
26 Good probing by Bohs and they've won the corner. Trevor Molloy plays it short and they've won another.
25 It's a good ball but Kevin Hunt was impeded and it'll be a free out.
25 Shamrock Rovers have won a free wide on the right and Greg Costello will swing it in.
24 Dave Morrison makes a good break down the right but he's stopped and it's a throw in for Bohs.
23 Still all the action is in the middle third.
21 It's Tony Grant now bursting forward at the other end for Rovers, but AGAIN the breakthrough just can't be made and Dave Hill helps out in the clearance.
20 Good ball foward from former U-21 Irish international Folan and Molloy could be in for the Gypsies. But it's just too long and Tony O'Dowd will gather.
20 It really is end to end stuff at Richmond Park but neither side have been able to apply the finishing touches up front.
18 Dave Morrison (Bohemians)
18 Trademark turn by Glen Crowe in the Rovers half and he'll set up another attack for Bohs. But Rovers clear away and Derek Tracey is looking to open up Bohs at the other end.
16 Stephen Caffrey should've done better for Bohs but he hesitated in front of goal from Glen Crowe's ball in.
15 Kick out for Rovers and Tony O'Dowd hits one deep into the Gypsies half.
13 As far as Bohs are concerned this one is a real sixpointer with league leaders Rovers three points clear at the top.
13 Confident opening from Bohs who look the better after 12 minutes of play.
13 What a header from Glen Crowe! Brian Shelley put in the cross from the right wing and the Dubliner met it with a wonderful driving header. But his shot crashed off Tony O'Dowd's crossbar and away to safety.
10 Tony Folan down the left wing again for Bohs. But good defending from former Shels and Athlone Town man Costello to get the ball away to safety for the Hoops.
9 It's been a frantic opening but no goals yet.
9 The early signs are that both sides are looking to spread the play wide so the corner backs will be under pressure.
8 This time the former Brentford winger puts one in for Glen Crowe who was unlucky to head over.
7 Bohemians debutant Tony Folan is pulling Greg Costello all over the place on the left wing for Bohs.

4 Throw in to Rovers down the right and Greg Costello will take.
3 Rovers win the corner but they're caught offside moments later and Bohs can regroup.
2 Shane Robinson puts in a good ball after skipping past Dave Hill down the right. But it's a good clearance at the back by Tony O'Connor.
1 Both sides are out on the pitch and the game is on.
The last time these sides met Rovers won 1-0 but memories of Bohemians 6-4 win over the Hoops at the Morton Stadium last season are still very much to the fore.
Richie Byrne and Billy Woods patrol the left side for the Hoops.
Tommy Dunne scored last week for Rovers in their 3-2 win over Monaghan but is on the bench.
Anthony Shevlin slots in at centre-half alongside Tony O'Connor for the
