Striker Trevor Molloy rescued a share of the spoils for Shamrock Rovers today as he netted past UCD keeper Patrick Jennings with the last kick of a high quality match.
Robert McAuley appeared to have won it for College with a 90th minute penalty after he had been upended by Stephen Grant.
But Molloy latched onto a Jason Colwell ball to shoot past Jennings two minutes into stoppage time.
UCD took the lead with a brilliant goal on 49 minutes.
Alan Cawley skipped past both Colwell and James Keddy to force Barry Ryan into a terrific parry save. But Darragh Ryan drove home the rebound.
Rovers upped the tempo and levelled on 64 minutes.
Keddy whipped over a superb cross and substitute Glen Fitzpatrick headed past Jennings. The result sees UCD now five points behind Derry City in tenth, having played one game more than the Ulster side and Rovers maintain the gap between them and Shelbourne at the top of the table, with one more game in hand for the Richmond Park side.
