57 | Not much to report in the opening minutes of this second half with the visitors enjoying the lions share of possession without necessarily causing much of a threat so far.
38 | Rory Gaffney wasnt far away from doubling his tally after he turned with his back to goal from the edge of the box and struck a low shot that had Brian Maher beaten but it was just wide of his right hand post!
36 | The Hoops are moving up the gears here as we seek to double this lead before the interval. Neil Farrugia and Jack Byrne and causing headaches for the Derry defence, especially up the right hand side.
