Saints Win 2023 FAI Cup

St Patrick's Athletic were crowned Sports Direct Men's FAI Cup champions for the second time in three years following a 3-1 victory over Bohemians at the Aviva Stadium.

The Super Saints had to come from behind in front of a record-breaking cup final crowd of 43,881 in Dublin 4 as they recovered from an early Jonathan Afolabi penalty to secure a third victory over Bohs this season.

They were level before the break thanks a Mark Doyle header, and they pushed on in the second half, showing a much more clinical edge than their northside rivals as an own goal and a Tommy Lonergan screamer settled the tie.
