DFC MU15 Coach Stephen Todd during Pre-Season. (📸 Kristine Lubimova) Saturday saw our MU15s travel to Derry and return with all three points after a resolute performance to raise the curtain on their league campaign in the best possible way. After an intense opening, Derry took the lead eight minutes in, but Dundalk responded almost immediately. Aaron O’Brien found space and delivered a pinpoint cross to Braiden McCarney, who arrived at the back post to guide a tidy finish a

Dundalk MU17s made a winning start to their 2026 season with a hard-earned 1-0 victory over local rivals Drogheda United in the Louth Derby at the MDL Grounds. Played in blustery conditions, this was a tight, end-to-end contest with very little to separate the sides. Chances were at a premium throughout the first half as both teams battled for control, and the sides went in level at the break with the scoreboard untouched. With the game heading towards a draw, Dundalk found t

Dundalk U14s made the perfect start to their League of Ireland campaign with an impressive 4-1 victory over neighbours Drogheda in their first-ever league fixture at Oriel Park.

Captain Finn O’Hara delivered an excellent cross into the box for Max Melanipi, who produced a superb volley into the top corner to open the scoring. Dundalk doubled their advantage soon

📸 Kristine Lubimova Dundalk FC U20s got their league campaign off to the perfect start last Saturday with an emphatic 6-1 victory over Derry City — a result that delighted manager Shane Grimes after a strong performance built on intensity, quality, and a ruthless edge.

Dundalk secured a well deserved point at Tallaght Stadium on Monday night when Danny Mullen scored a dramatic equaliser in the 90th minute. A performance full of character and energy, Dundalk weathered the storm and adapted to being reduced to ten men for the final 15 minutes after Vinnie Leonard was shown a red card.  Dundalk made five changes from the team that drew against Drogheda United with Harvey Warren, Tyreke Wilson, Harry Groome, Ronan Teahan and Declan McDaid comin

Picture: Ben McShane/Sportsfile Dundalk FC began life in the new FAI Women’s Development League in emphatic style, powering past Sligo Rovers with six goals after a day that delivered every kind of weather Oriel Park could throw at both teams. In a first half played through wind, rain and bursts of sunshine, Dundalk carried the greater attacking threat and created the clearer chances. Sligo goalkeeper McMahon kept her side in contention with a series of strong saves, most not

After Friday’s 1-1 draw with Drogheda United, Dundalk travel to Tallaght Stadium on Monday night to face reigning champions Shamrock Rovers. The match kicks-off at 8pm is live on LOITV.

Dundalk were left frustrated at Oriel Park on Friday night as Drogheda United struck late to salvage a point in a lively Louth derby. With a big crowd in attendance and plenty of edge to the occasion, Dundalk grew into the contest and carried the sharper threat through neat attacking combinations involving Gbemi Arubi, Danny Mullen and Daryl Horgan. The hosts also needed Conor Kearns at his best to deny Thomas Oluwa with an important save before the breakthrough. That breakth
