Dundalk 0 Bray W 2:GOALS from Gary Shaw and Chris Shields were enough to give Bray Wanderers their second win of the season at Oriel Park, a victory that moves the Seagulls just three points off second-from-bottom Drogheda United in the table.

The home side created little in attack and it was no surprise when they conceded for the 19th game in succession on 33 minutes.

It came from the boot of Shaw, only signed from Newbridge Town on Monday night, as he showed great determination to hold off a defender and fire into the bottom corner.

Shields fired home the second a Jake Kelly cross from close range in the 65th minute to secure the points.
