Overdue cup glory in sight as Saints march into final

Dundalk 0 St Patrick’s Athletic 3

A goal after 21 minutes by centre-half Kenny Browne and two in the second half, the first from former Dundalk player Greg Bolger after 53 minutes and then a calm finish by Sean O’Connor five minutes from time, set up a November 4 meeting with either Shelbourne or Derry City.

Bolger was denied a second goal by a spectacular goal-line clearance by Derek Foran just before the third goal.
