Dinny Corcoran was the hero as his 91st minute winner broke the hearts of the visiting Bray Wanderers side, who will count themselves unlucky not to get anything from the game.
The battle started at a rip roaring pace with goals inside the first five minutes. A bullet header from Daniel Kelly gave the visitors the dream start but was cancelled out almost immediately by a rocket from Ian Morris from all of 30+ yards.
The Bohs midfielder, with his second in a week, caught his left footed effort beautifully as it flew into the side netting giving Aaron Dillon no chance. It was all Bohs from then on with Dinny Corcoran setting up both Eoghan Stokes and Oscar Brennan to have efforts from the edge of the box that missed the target by inches, if even.
The Seagulls responded well to the pressure as the game began to go from end to end. Shane Supple was forced into one of the saves of the season from Darragh Noone’s flick header, as the Bohs stopper, at full stretch, tipped the effort around the post with some of the Bray players almost celebrating.
The two Kelly’s combined well for the visitors at the start of the second half as ex-Bohs man Jake Kelly, cut back well to the on-rushing name-sake Daniel who was unable to keep his volley down.
The second half was in stark absolute contrast to the entertaining first half as the free flowing game turned to a gritty, scrappy affair as both teams searched for the winner. As the minutes trickled down and a goal didn’t appear to be on the horizon, amongst the home fans frustration, “IT” happened.
Dinny Corcoran made himself the hero following good link up play with Ward, who played it cleverly out to the right hand side of the box after attracting the Bray rearguard all got attracted to the ball. Corcoran kept his composure to hammer a low drive into the far bottom corner as pandemonium ensued around Dalymount.
