Result: Saints 3 - Waterford 0
Teenager Mason Melia scored for the third match running as St Patrick's Athletic made it three league wins on the bounce for the first time this season.
Having hit their winner in Dundalk last time out, 16-year-old striker Melia added to Zach Elbouzedi's opener in capping a dominant first half by Stephen Kenny's side as they beat Blues for the first time in six games.
Aidan Keena scored a late third as St Pat's, who, though they remain seventh, are now two points behind fifth-placed Waterford and five off third place with six games to play.
