LOI: Athlone Suffer Rare Home Defeat

Dario Castelo's side have lost their last two home games.

Athlone Town's promotion ambitions were dented on Friday after they lost at home to Bray in the League of Ireland First Division.

In just their second home loss of the season, the midlanders were beaten by a nicely taken Guillermo Almirall goal in the 76th minute.

That result, coupled with UCD's 2-0 win over Finn Harps, means the students leap-frog Town into second in the standings.

Elsewhere Cork City secured their 18th win of the campaign with a 1-0 victory over Cobh.

While Wexford won on the road to Treaty United 3-1.

Athlone Town will be looking to bounce back against Wexford on Friday evening.
