The home side came close to hitting the front after 10 minutes but Adrian Delap saw his curled effort come back off the post.

The visitors grew into proceedings and took the lead on the 26 minute mark, with Rory Garvey slotting the ball into the bottom corner of the net.

With five minutes left in Act One, St Francis FC doubled their advantage courtesy of a Daniel Hickey strike, leaving them two ahead at the break.

Stephen McConnell’s men battled hard in the second stanza to try to overturn the deficit but it was the away side that got the half’s only goal.

With 12 minutes left on the clock, Daniel Hickey found the back of the net for a second time, sealing the three points for the Dublin outfit.

Letterkenny Rovers are back in action in two weeks time when they travel to TU Dublin.
