Glenanne and Wanderers to renew rivalry in cup showdown

THE latest chapter in the enduring rivalry between Glenanne and Pembroke Wanderers will be written when the Leinster heavyweights clash in the last four of the men’s Irish Senior Cup at Serpentine Avenue tomorrow (2.15pm).

Goals are a guarantee for fans if the duo’s previous meetings are anything to go by. Glens reeled in a three-goal deficit to draw 3-3 in their Valentine’s Day league clash, but went down by the odd goal in nine in a recent Irish Hockey League encounter.

Pembroke are the holders and will be keen to get back on track after succumbing in extra-time to Corinthians in the Mills Cup final on St Patrick’s Day, though Arul Anthoni’s Glens will be determined to take back the title they won in 2007.
