Cork City turn on the style to celebrate league title

Cork City celebrated their First Division trophy presentation with their biggest win of the season, putting six past play-off-bound Wexford to complete an unbeaten home campaign.

Cathal O'Sullivan scored another stunning brace against his favourite opponents while Ruairí Keating, Seani Maguire, Cian Bargary, and Malik Dijksteel all found the net.

For the second time in three years, Cian Coleman lifted the First Division trophy surrounded by his teammates and a 4,268 crowd. They will hope not to be back down here again.

Tim Clancy's first press conference as City manager included the promise of goals. He will take personal pride that this haul pushed them past Wexford to finish as the Division's top scorers with 64.

The visitors will hope they can shake off this morale-crushing defeat. Their late-season surge saw them pipped into third place but a play-off against Athlone Town awaits.

Only three minutes after receiving a guard of honour onto the field from Wexford, City opened the scoring. Greg Bolger lofted a ball in behind the defence and Keating's first-time strike had enough to beat the Wexford keeper for his fifth goal since re-signing.

After a brief lull, City began to ramp up the heat again. Keating twice came close to his second, with one shot rolling just wide of the far post.

The pressure paid off. By the half-hour, City had netted twice in three minutes, beginning with O'Sullivan rifling in a loose ball from the edge of the box.

Maguire then decided to get in on the act. It came from fine defensive play by Charlie Lyons and Evan McLaughin's pass. Maguire swivelled into space and fired under goalie Conor Walsh for his seventh goal in seven games.

Keating looked certain to add another when unselfishly teed up by Maguire
