FAI Cup: Candystripes defeat Bohemians in Dublin to make decider

Michael Duffy helped himself to a magnificent double as Derry City booked their place in the FAI Cup final with a 2-0 win over Bohemians at Dalymount Park.

The first cam on 39 minutes with a beautifully curled free-kick from just outside the corner of the box.

Duffy then settled proceedings with just under a quarter of the game remaining when he let fly from range with a fearsome drive, leaving Kacper Chorazka beaten in the Bohemians net.

It’s a 12th FAI Cup final appearance for the Candystripes to look forward to and with a wide-open Premier Division title race, a double is very much on the cards.

Looking to bounce back after a disappointing defeat to Drogheda United last Friday night, Derry travelled to a venue that has served them well in recent times.

The north-west club arrived at Dalymount Park having only lost once in their previous eight visits and winning 2-1 back in June.

In the opening 45 minutes both sides had a half-hearted appeal for a penalty. First, Derry’s Patrick McEleney went down under a challenge while Alex Grieve felt he was bundled over moments before the break.

Around the half-hour mark City’s Adam O’Reilly and Duffy saw strikes from outside the area fly over.
