Cork City vs Cobh Ramblers

Cork City will reunite with Cobh Ramblers in an official match after last meeting in an official match in 2008 where Cobh Ramblers was still playing in the main league. Then in the last 5 meetings they only made friendlies, although in those 5 games they never won with only 2 draws and 3 matches lost to Cork City. But in the continuation of the Ireland League Cup, it’s time for Cobh Ramblers to show their true strength.

Cobh Ramblers qualified for this round because they beat Limerick with a score of 3-1. Obviously the result surprised everyone, because Limerick was very seeded to win. But Cobh Ramblers was able to prove that estimate was wrong, the player who scored 3 goals was D. Fernandes, B. Murphy and J. Kabia. These 3 players are definitely expected to contribute again.

In contrast to Cork City because they played in the main league then went straight to this round 2, but last season at the same event they were eliminated in this round because they lost to Waterford United through the drama of penalties. If remembering these results is clear, Cork City is keen to correct this failure by winning the match.

The match that brings together the major league vice team with a first division team that is clearly different levels. It is natural for a team of major league representatives who are always trusted to win, because the quality of the players is clearly very different too and on the level of the game cannot escape the reasons for winning. Getting a home advantage is also an advantage, because in 5 meetings the previous friendly match always played at Cobh Ramblers headquarters and never fell. It’s likely that Cork City won and qualified for the next round.
