A Davin O’Neill hat-trick made it a lucky Friday the 13th for Cork City last night as Tommy Dunne’s side finally got their first league win of the season after an emphatic victory over 10-man Monaghan United at Turners Cross.

Cork City’s long journey home from the Brandywell last night will not have been helped with this defeat, the Leesiders losing out to a brace of second-half goals.

IN spite of dominating for long periods, Cork City dropped two points when they failed to break down a resolute home defence.
