Newmarket Celtic and Shannon Town played out a 2-2 draw in an exciting contest on Sunday morning.
League leaders Shannon Town welcomed reigning champions Newmarket Celtic to Lynch Park in an interesting ninety minute battle. Rob Wall put the hosts in front when he took advantage of a Rob Shier error.
Centre-half Mark Donlon got Celtic back on level terms when he headed an Eoin Hayes cross to the back of the net. Donlon received his marching orders from referee James Ferns shortly after with the decision leaving a large proportion of the spectators bemused.
Eoin Hayes put Celtic in front when he tucked away a penalty which was awarded for a handball.
In the final twenty minutes Shannon Town struck for goal with a Chris Lake free kick taking a deflection to beat Rob Shier and get the Town a share of the spoils.
Newmarket Celtic: Rob Shier; Seamus Lawlor, Paddy Purcell, Mark Donlon, Eoin O’Brien; Ian Collins, Tino Nzvaura, Colin Ryan, Brian Monaghan; David McCarthy, Eoin Hayes.
