Shamrock Rovers’ late switches had the desired effect as a spectacular last minute winner in front of the away turned Tolka Park into a sea of Greene.
Striker Aaron Greene netted within six minutes of his introduction as Rovers withstood a sturdy Shelbourne comeback to move back within three points of leaders Derry City.
He sent an unstoppable shot into the top corner of the Shelbourne net after linking up with fellow subs Neil Farrugia and Danny Mandroiu in front of the away fans.
