UCD 2 St Patrick's Athletic 0: A depleted St Patrick's Athletic came unstuck at Belfield this evening, suffering just their second defeat of the season as they were knocked out of the eircom League Cup.

The visitors, without a number of key players as manager John McDonnell mixed things up, were undone by late strikes from Evan McMillan and debutante John Reilly at the Belfield Bowl.

Pete Mahon, who also took the opportunity to have a look at some of the fringe players in his squad, will be more than pleased with the way his side performed against the league leaders.
