BRAY WANDERERS 2 SHELBOURNE 3
In the end, the hosts were somewhat unlucky not to get something from tonight's match, having played a spirited second period with only ten men.
In an incident-filled ninety minutes at the Carlisle, the Reds went ahead twice only to be pegged back each time.
Midfielder Dave Cassidy gave them the lead just before the half hour, only for Kieran "Marty" Waters to strike back eight minutes later.
In the final minute of the first half, Philip Gorman restored the Shelbourne lead, and a minute into time added, Waters lost his cool when facing a card for his challenge on Brian Shortall and raised his hand to Gareth Matthews.
Referee Neil Doyle had no option but to switch cards, but he proceeded to caution Matthews as well.
The second half was only minutes old when John Mulroy pounced on an error by Chris Bennion to restore equality.
But the numerical advantage was bound to tell, and former Seagull Paddy Kavanagh made the most of a poor punch by Darren Quigley to put the visitors ahead inside the final quarter hour.
It proved enough to take the three points north of the Liffey.
