Shels fall to a one goal defeat to Drita

Shelbourne manager Joey O’Brien admits it’s a “sickener” to have just one point after their first three Conference League games.

Alamir Ajzeraj’s deflected shot gave Drita a 1-nil win against 10-man Shels at Tallaght Stadium last night, where the hosts were hampered by the first-half sending off of James Norris.

O’Brien says they “left it behind them” by missing a string of good chances across the game.
