Callum O’Dowda of Oxford Utd has family in Dundalk
There was a distinctive Dundalk connection to Oxford Utd’s 1-0 win at promotion chasing Bury at the weekend.
Former Lilywhites striker Pat Hoban supplied the through ball for Callum O’Dowda to slot home the winner with five minutes to go in League One.
O’Dowda is the grandson of late Dundalk tenor Brendan and has family still in the area.
On the back of his goal, Callum was called up to the Irish U-21 squad for the European Championship Qualifiers today.
