Holy mother of the sweet divine! Some comeback for Bohemians.

Shamrock Rovers got one hell of a shock at Dalymount as they let a 1-0 lead slip against their fierce rivals Bohemians to lose 3-1.

Rovers captain Ronan Finn had put his side a goal up in their Airtricity League opener but they dropped back in the second half and paid the price.

Bohs levelled matters with 20 minutes to go before Paddy Kavanagh put his side ahead with a peach of a finish.

If you liked that strike, the celebrations were even better.

The Bohs players flooded into the corner of the pitch and piled onto Kavanagh as the celebrated in front of three chip van employees, who joined in the fun.

The watching nation was instantly acclaiming the chip van crew:

What a start for Bohs and what free advertising for that pristine van and its’ joyous crew!
