Kilduff should have gotten a peno regardless.

Dundalk 1 - 0 Shamrock Rovers![]()
Another nice €120k in the coffers for Dundalk.
Great stuff from Dundalk. Fantastic result. It looked all up for them when they went down to 10 men. Showed great character.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
How was ķiller booked when he slipped?!
Also wonder what Sava does be thinking watching Rogers. A couple of good saves, but a liability overall. And he's the one in the ireland squad?
Great result though - more so because it was deserved. The Alkmaar manager looked furious.
Man United and Dundalk away in Holland and only one came away with a result.
You've got no fans.
Fair play to them, never gave up on it even after going down to 10. Superb result really.
Superb.Well done Dundalk.Better quality football than the international side.
How did I completely miss the red card?!
Fair play to them. I though their chance had gone with the red card, but they stuck at it.
What a night to be a Dundalk fan, especially for lads who've been following the team for donkey's years.
Credit to AZ for raising their game to compete at this level and nearly keeping the game out of Dundalk's reach.
Aye, fairly ridiculous.
We'll say nowt about the 'offside' goal, but I actually thought Dundalk were pretty poor in the second half. AZ were more aggressive and energetic after HT, which you'd expect, but thought Dundalk dropped their game plan at that point.
Dreadful stuff from Rogers and O'Donnell. Rogers could easily have went for that punch, not that he should have went for it anyway.
AZ backing off after the goal allowed Dundalk back into it. They really should have pushed on for the second and they'll be kicking themselves about that.
Great effort to keep going though, and Dundalk deserved the point. It was obvious come the 80th minute that a fair few of the Dundalk players were knackered, Horgan especially. He did an awful lot of chasing all game.
Bit of a rest for the players until Tuesday, but you can tell that fatigue is likely to be an issue over the next two months.
Ya Dundalk were knackered toward the end, rode their luck but showed a level of professionalism that no other LOI has in Europe, if you asked this morning I would have said they would get at no point from that group.
Ultimately Kilduff's header turned it into 9/10 star performance.
AZ were poor in the 2nd half, considering the onus was on them to win the game and after they scored their game went to free style.
Awful defending from them for Dundalk's goal, Kilduff was being mauled.
Hard to credit AZ are representing the dutch league but this is modern Dutch football, this is where Ron Vlaar crawled to, I thought he had gone missing, a la Lord Lucan.
Dundalk should be well able to beat them in the "home" game.
