Drom

UCD eased into the third round of the FAI Cup this evening with a 4-0 win over Galway side Salthill Devon in Drom. Three first half goals set the College up for a straightforward win before Conan Byrne added his second of the game in the dying moments.

Conor Sammon opened the scoring midway through the first period after a flowing UCD move.

Derek Doyle made it 2-0 on 38 minutes as he slammed home a volley on 38 minutes. Conan Byrne finished well after a mazy run through the home defence just moments later.

Salthill rarely threatened any form of a fightback and Byrne grabbed his second of the game right at the end to wrap up a comfortable win.

Salthill Devon : Holland; O'Donnell, Waldron, Geraghty, Syzsmanski (Greer 46), Silke, Rabbitte, Browne (Greaney 73), McBrien, Faherty, Gilmore (Fitzpatrick 85).
UCD : Gregg, Mahon, Kenna, McNally, Bermingham, C Byrne, McDonnell (Bolger 85), McFaul (Moran 86), Doyle, Sammon, P Byrne (Purcell 69).
