FAI Cup 2nd Round (Replay)

Wexford Youths 0

Limerick 37 1

Davy Wall 63

Wexford Football Complex

Davy Wall's goal just after the hour proved decisive as Limerick 37 edged past Wexford Youths to reach the third round of this season's FAI Cup following an FAI Cup replay at the Wexford Youths football complex tonight.

Wexford had more possession in the first half but couldn't make it count. Limerick goalkeeper Dave Ryan had to be off his line quickly in the early going to prevent Paul Malone from firing a shot in from close range. Malone was close again minutes later but narrowly flicked off target.

Wall saw a long range deflected shot saved as Limerick came more into the game after the break.

Wall then headed home from Kevin Waters' corner kick on 63 minutes for what proved to be the only goal of the game.

Wexford might have grabbed an equaliser but Anthony Hayes flicked Stuart Lawlor's header off the line.

Wexford Youths : J Russell, Rossiter, Lawlor, O'Loughlin (Kelly 76), A Russell, Malone, Wadding, Flynn-O'Connor, Miller, Sinnott, Murphy (Colfer 81).
LIMERICK 37 : Ryan, White, Molan (Danaher 19), Finucane, Purcell, Hayes, Maloney, Wall, Cosgrave (Sheehan 86), Waters, Moran (McCarthy 6).
