Blues focused for ‘cup final’

“This is now our cup final,” is how Waterford captain David Breen sums up what’s at stake tonight as the Blues host Dundalk in the second and decisive leg of their Airtricity League promotion/relegation play-off.

With away goals not counting, a 2-2 draw in the first leg at Oriel Park means both sides are starting from scratch at the RSC, although Waterford boss Paul O’Brien is taking great heart from his side’s performance on the road.

“Myself and all the management staff are so proud of each and every one of our players,” he says. “The 2-2 result means we now play with our destiny in our own hands.”
