Dunne readies City for second cup run

IN a week in which they learned they will be hosting the EA Sports Cup final against Derry City at Turner’s Cross next month, Cork City now turn their attentions to the most coveted of all Irish cup trophies as they prepare for a FAI Cup clash against Wexford Youths at Ferrycarrig Park this evening.

City boss Tommy Dunne needs no reminding that Wexford Youths can cause problems because it is only two weeks since Noel O’Connor’s team put a dent in Cork’s promotion challenge by leaving Leeside with a point after a 2-2 draw.

“Looking back on our last meeting with Wexford, the lesson we learned is that we need to be more clinical at both ends of the pitch,” said Dunne.
