Derry knocked out of FAI Cup by holders Drogheda

 

Drogheda United knocked Derry City out of the FAI Senior Cup at the Ryan McBride Brandywell last night.

The defending champions and Derry were level 1-1 after 120 minutes.

There were no goals in extra time as a stunning Michael Duffy effort for the Candy Stripes had cancelled out an early opener from Andrew Quinn.

Penalties were required and it was the away side who held their nerve to win 3-0 on spot-kicks and progress to the last eight.
