Emma Doherty and Jodie Loughrey were on target for Sligo Rovers in a six-goal thriller in Limerick on Saturday.

Doherty scored twice and Loughrey was also in on the act with her first senior goal in a 3-3 classic in the Women's Premier Division at the Markets Field.

Cara Griffin fired Treaty in front after only two minutes and it got worse for Sligo when Bonnie McKiernan struck from distance ro double the lead.

However, Doherty headed home to reduce the Sligo arrears only for Kiara Kilbey registering to give Treaty a 3-1 half-time lead.

On 65 minutes, Doherty fired home to level the tie and earn Steve Feeeney's Bit O'Red – who also included Keri Loughrey in their starting XI - a share of the spoils.
