Dundalk FC fell to their second league defeat of the campaign at The Showgrounds last night.
Romeo Parkes and Dante Leverock were the goalscorers as Sligo Rovers picked up their first home win over the Lilywhites in seven years.
Dundalk scored a first half equaliser through Patrick Hoban, but were unable to get on level terms for a second time despite gaining more of a foothold during the second half.

Here's Perth's reaction:
Dundalk head coach Vinny Perth said his side were not good enough last night against Sligo Rovers and could have lost by more.
