The third round draw for this years Sports Direct Men’s FAI Cup will take place tomorrow, Tuesday (23rd July), live on the official FAI YouTube channel!

The Blues secured their place in the hat for the third round (Last-16) of this years Sports Direct Men’s FAI Cup with a two-one victory over Inishowen Football League side Cockhill Celtic FC on Friday night at the RSC.

After Luke Rudden had eyes turning when his 13th-minute effort put the Donegal outfit into a surprise lead, the Blues upped the gears before Gbemi Arubi equalised eight minutes later. Ryan Burke then got on the end of Darragh Power’s cross just two minutes into the second-half to secure the Blues’ passage into the third-round.

Waterford have reached the semi-final stage in two out of the last three seasons, coming out on the wrong side of a 1-0 score line both times against Bohemians (2021) & Shelbourne (2022), as the Blues will be looking to go one step further this year by reaching the showpiece final event that will take place in the Aviva Stadium on Sunday 10th November.
