Sligo Rovers bounced back from last Friday's loss to Drogheda United to beat St Patrick's Athletic 2-1 in Monday night's SSE Airtricity League of Ireland Premier Division game at the Showgrounds.
The team recovered from the first-half dismissal of defender John Mahon after just 20 minutes - and goals from Reece Hutchinson in the first half and Fabrice Hartmann in the second gave John Russell's side the points.
In between the Rovers goals, St Pat's substitute Chris Forrester scored an excellent equaliers on 62 minutes for the Inchicore side.
