Dublin rivals meet in repeat of 2021 final

In keeping with the Dublin-based transport company that sponsors Bohemians, two all-capital cup finals have come along in quick succession, after over two decades without one.

Bohemians beat Shelbourne 1-0 in a replay after a scoreless draw back in 2000, and 21 years later there were no goals in normal time again, as Bohs took on St Pat's in front of 37,000 people at the Aviva.

Both sides scored in extra-time before St Pat's prevailed 4-3 on penalties to extend Bohemians' run without a major trophy that stretches back to 2009.

The Gypsies will have revenge on their minds this year, although only three of the XI that started on that day are still on their books - James Talbot, Ali Coote, and club captain Keith Buckley, who has been ruled out of the final through injury.

Jamie Lennon and Chris Forrester are the only survivors from the Saints' starting team, but much of the Aviva Crowd will be made up of the same faces who were there two years ago, as the match looks set to break the all-time attendance record for an FAI Cup final, with over 40,000 tickets already sold on Friday afternoon.
