Cork City claim FAI Cup with winner at the death

It took almost every one of the 120 minutes played to do it, but Cork City finally have their hands on a major trophy at Dundalk’s expense thanks to Sean Maguire’s deflected effort at the back end of extra-time.

Penalties seemed inevitable as an entertaining game wound down and both sides failed to make the most of a variety and volume of chances, but Maguire’s strike won it for City in the most dramatic and, for Stephen Kenny’s side, cruellest of manners.

There will be no 'double double' for them now: denied by a man who played just six times for them last term and who watched this encounter last year from the stands before switching allegiance to Cork.
