Derry City boss Ruaidhrí Higgins ready to takeover Aviva Stadium in next month’s FAI Cup final.
IN A CITY raised on songs and stories the 500 Derry City fans who took over a small corner of north Dublin last night will have a tale to tell the next generation.
The first will be recalled as one of the great semi-final moments, its lore already finding a fateful origin. The day before, Duffy’s manager sat down to show him previous goals he had scored against Bohs at Dalymount Park to help with positive visualisation. The second strike came after the kind of jink and twist from the wing that Duffy has probably earned the right to try and trademark as intellectual property in the League of Ireland. He turned 30 in July and it was these kind of performances earlier in his career that had him close to becoming a Republic of Ireland international.
“I don’t know, people will say he’s had a quietish season but I think he’s near double figures. He’s on nine goals from a wide area and he’s missed quite a few games earlier in the season. It’s a really good return and he’s got six more games to get into double figures, which I’m 100% sure he will do.”
