Lions will be wary of a Demons backlash

THE happenings of last weekend rendered the formbook for tomorrow’s Men’s SuperLeague Cup Final meaningless.

Finalists UCC Demons were demolished by Gleneagle Lakers in the final ten minutes of a league encounter while opponents Limerick Lions had to battle through overtime for an 89-91 victory over basement team, Neptune.

Demons were hot favourites to lift the cup but, last Sunday, they were licking their wounds after a sensational turnaround saw them lose by seven after leading by 27 at half-time.
