DROGHEDA UNITED will face Derry City in the FAI Cup final next month after Adam Foley’s injury time goal saw them squeak past Wexford and into the Aviva Stadium showpiece.
Dobbs’ had handed Youths a deserved lead in the first half but they sat back in the second half and invited a largely under-par United back into the game. Foley levelled it before Douglas James-Taylor put the hosts in control, or seemingly so. This will be remembered for altogether different reasons. A slow burner of a cup semi-final, this soon turned into a last four classic.
Drogheda United’s Shane Farrell with Thomas Oluwa of Wexford. Morgan Treacy / INPHO Morgan Treacy / INPHO / INPHO Drogheda went in front when James-Taylor met Darragh Markey’s corner with a firm header. The lead, however, lasted exactly two minutes. Dobbs bundled in from close range.
