Avondale United back in cup final after four-year absence

After an absence of four years, FAI Intermediate Cup specialists Avondale United are back in the final after booking their place in the Aviva Stadium decider with a 2-0 victory over Rockmount in yesterday’s semi-final at Avondale Park

Avondale contested five finals from 2010 to 2014, losing the first one before going on to win the next four. However, only one Munster Senior League side in Cobh Wanderers have only reached the final since.
