Result: Saints 4 - Sligo 3
Aidan Keena scored twice to help down his former club as St Patrick's Athletic laboured to their first victory of the campaign following this madcap clash at Richmond Park.
Making the most of limited possession, Sligo battled gamely throughout with ex-Saint Cian Kavanagh forcing an own goal before scoring twice himself, either side of having a penalty saved, before Keena got what proved the winner.
Ahead of a big week to come with games against Derry City and Shamrock Rovers, the negatives on the night for St Pat's manager Stephen Kenny were first-half injuries to right-back Ryan McLaughlin and midfielder Romal Palmer, while Barry Baggley was sent off in added time for a second booking.
