Shamrock Rovers vs St. Pats - FAI Ford Cup Semi Final and Replay - 17th and 19th October 2010

After recent problems with form, which saw the Hoops slip to one point behind first place, Rovers looked forward to the home-drawn cup semi-final against St.Pats as a break from the league and a chance to re-group for the final push. The first match was a exciting affair, with Rovers taking the lead twice. However St.Pats were handed a lifeline when, in the final minutes of the game Rovers scored an own goal, and a replay was set for two days later.

In front of a packed away crowd in Richmond Park Rovers showed the same confidence that had put them top of the league previously and while St.Pats fought hard to progress it was the Hoops who broke the deadlock to join Sligo in the first cup match to be held in the new Aviva Stadium.

Great stuff as always Gleth, have to say i love the noise when you're filming from there, and the view isn't actually too bad, nice to get a different perspective.
