Sullivan hat-trick shatters Everton dream of cup glory

Everton (Cork) 1 Waterford United 3

Sullivan, born in Dungarvan and enjoying his second season with Waterford after three years in Scotland with Celtic and Livingston, was in dynamic form and his skill and mobility proved too much for Everton to contain.

Waterford had need of his skill for they were rocked by Everton’s high-tempo start. They might have conceded three goals in the opening ten minutes while their defence dithered.
