DERRY CITY DUMPED title rivals Shelbourne out of the FAI Cup with a convincing victory at Brandywell to keep alive their hopes of a ‘double’.
That was Derry’s 50th goal of the season in all competitions and Mullen is responsible for a fifth of those. This first meeting in the cup since Derry’s 4-0 victory in the final at the Aviva back in 2022 was a much more open affair than the three previous meetings between the teams. McMullan ran at the Shels defence on 18 minutes but his eventual tame toe-poke was saved comfortably by Conor Kearns.
