UCD ended their decade-long Jacqui Potter Cup final curse as Emma Young and Ellen Atkinson goals in the first 10 minutes propelled them to a 2-1 win over Old Alex at Grange Road and cup glory for the first time since 2012.

It also owed a huge amount to a Laura Gunning penalty stroke save from Sarah Robinson 70 seconds from full time as the students clung on amid a late Alex onslaught.
