Damien Duff fumes over added time after late Shamrock Rovers goal beats Shelbourne

Shelbourne manager Damien Duff's frustration with League of Ireland match officials was clear to see as he fumed at the end of his side's narrow 3-2 to Shamrock Rovers on Sunday.

Twice, Shelbourne took the lead through Shane Farrell, and twice, Dan Cleary leveled things up for the Hoops. The game seemed destined to end in a draw only for Rory Gaffney to make himself a hero with a stunning volley deep into injury time.

The Rovers bench erupted in jubilation while Duff was left irate on the sideline. The former Republic of Ireland star pointed to his watch to indicate that time was up, and after the game, he spoke to RTE about his disbelief that so much time was played beyond the stated four additional minutes.
