Shamrock Rovers to play Galway United in All-Island Cup final

Defending champions Galway United will travel to Tallaght Stadium for the Avenir Sports All-Island Cup Final against Shamrock Rovers on Saturday, August 17 at 19:35.

The draw was made following the conclusion of both Semi-Finals to decide the venue for the Final of the Avenir Sports All-Island Cup, with Shamrock Rovers drawn as the home side for this fixture, which will be broadcast live on TG4.

Galway United needed penalties to overcome Wexford after extra-time, with Shamrock Rovers cementing their place in the Final by defeating Shelbourne in Tolka Park in a thrilling Semi-Final which finished 2-1 to the visitors.

Ticket information for the final will be available in the coming days.

As a result of both sides advancing to the Avenir Sports All-Island Cup Final, two SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division fixtures originally scheduled for Saturday, August 17, have now been postponed and will be rescheduled to a later date:

* Shamrock Rovers vs. DLR Waves, Tallaght Stadium, 16:00
* Cork City vs. Galway United, Turner's Cross, 17:00

The League of Ireland can also confirm that the SSE Airtricity Men’s Premier Division fixture between St. Patrick’s Athletic and Sligo Rovers, originally scheduled for Friday, August 2, at 19:45, will now be played on Sunday, August 4, at 18:00.
