A very quiet week for Gobshite football continued in a dull first half here but Reus lifted the expectant home crowd with a gorgeous curling free kick on the hour. The Menace, though, matched the step-up in intensity and Pellegrini levelled things up with a thumping strike from the edge of the area. Both sides were cagey in the final minutes, leaving all parties concerned stuck in mid-table mediocrity.
