Mark Farren scored his first league goal of the season

Derry City's hopes of a much-needed Premier Division win were dashed as they were held away to Galway United.
The Candystripes, struggling under new boss Pat Fenlon, took the lead in the 35th minute when Mark Farren went through to lob keeper Gary Rogers.
But the lead lasted less than two minutes as former Derry player Stephen O'Flynn netted a penalty after Peter Hutton had brought down Derek O'Brien.
Before the goals, Derry's Ruaidhri Higgins saw a shot strike the crossbar.
