The Dublin Derby once again delivered drama aplenty in Tallaght Stadium tonight as Shamrock Rovers were hit with two first-half red cards during their clash with Bohemians in the Airtricity League.
Stephen Bradley's outfit are flying high at the league currently but have unfinished business against their cross-city rivals who have had their number recently.
However, Rovers were dealt a first-half hammer blow when two of their back four were sent off within seven minutes.
Firstly, Trevor Clarke was shown a red card after he was deemed to have pulled down Daniel Grant.
