Peamount United completed the double by blitzing Cork City with six second-half goals in today’s FAI Women’s Cup final at Tallaght Stadium.
Following an evenly contested first half of few chances, Stephanie Roche grabbed an early brace before Áine O’Gorman added a third.
Three goals in the last nine minutes from Karen Duggan and substitutes Becky Watkins and Tiegen Ruddy made the final scoreline harsh on City.
After finishing 14 points off Peamount, the young Rebels went into the final as underdogs against a side chasing their first Cup in a decade and began brightly.
