Summary edit
St Patrick's Athletic had the better of the chances with Eoin Doyle and Mark Doyle both missing two good chances in the first half before Eoin Doyle opened the scoring in the 50th minute, finishing from 5 yards after Shamrock Rovers goalkeeper Alan Mannus parried Jamie Lennon's volley. The home side were level in the 67th minute when Ronan Finn capitalised on a goalkeeping error from Pat's debutant Joseph Anang who spilled a cross straight into the path of Rovers captain.[5] The score remained level after 90 minutes and Chris Forrester had his penalty saved by Mannus in the shootout to seal the trophy for the home side after all other penalties for both sides were scored.[1]
