Result: Rovers 3 - Saints 1
Shamrock Rovers opened the new campaign in style with a comprehensive victory over St Patrick's Athletic to win the President's Cup at Tallaght Stadium.
A scoreless opening 45 in front of over 8,000 supporters at the atmospheric Dublin venue, however, the reigning league champions stepped up the levels in the second half.
Josh Honahan headed home in between a Trevor Clarke brace as the Hoops cruised to secure their first silverware of the season, with Jamie Lennon's consolation coming in injury time with the contest well and truly over.
