@UltanCorcoran 40 mins: Shamrock Rovers 0-2 Celje A disaster for Rovers just before the break as Kovacevic grabs his second. A simple cross to the back post finds Lukasz Bejger who knocks it back across the line to an unmarked Kovacevic to tap it in.

@UltanCorcoran 33 mins: Shamrock Rovers 0-1 Celje Celje take the lead through a fine induvidual effort by Franko Kovacevic's, as the forward jinked by two Hoops shirts and blasted beyond Ed McGinty. It was an even affair until the opener, Stephen Bradley will be raging with that concession.

@UltanCorcoran 12 mins: 0-0 VAR comes to Shamrock Rovers' rescue as Franko Kovacevic's strike is ruled offside after a lengthy four-minute check. It was a tight call but the correct one. Decent start for the Hoops with Rory Gaffney testing the visiting goalkeeper early on.

Stephen Bradley was keen to put the focus on the football last night. Albert Riera? Not so much. “Arrogance and confidence are totally different. Maybe he needs to read in the dictionary what confidence means” - Riera Shamrock Rovers v Celje preview 👇🏻

A first double for Athlone Town as they edge Bohemians with a 3-2 win. Also their second FAI Cup in three years for the Midlanders. Kelly Brady the hero with a superb hat-trick, the first to do so in the Women’s FAI Cup final since Leanne Kiernan 9 years ago. @IndoSport
