Result: Cork 3 - Saints 0

A night that began with a fan protest ended with a joyful pitch invasion as Cork City produced an FAI Cup shock for the ages.

The relegation-bound side overwhelmed St Patrick's Athletic with their counter-attacking prowess to seal an Aviva Stadium return for the first time since 2018.

City led this semi-final from Seani Maguire's 10th-minute strike before two goals in the space of 90 seconds from Evan McLaughlin secured a remarkable triumph at a rocking Turner's Cross. The marauding midfielder had also bagged a brace in the quarter-final.
