A little over 500 people turned up at the Carlisle Grounds to witness Kieran Sadlier nudge Cork City closer to fulfilling their double dream.

The Leesiders attacking wizard played both the villain and the hero of the piece as he missed a penalty before bagging the winner just three minutes later.

City's penalty was well earned as Shane Griffin and Sadlier played a one-two. The former glided by Tim Clancy before being bundled over by Aaron Greene but Sadlier's 12-yarder was kept out by Lee Steacy.

It only took Sadlier three minutes to make amends though as he picked up possession inside the area and curled a brilliant finish to the far corner. Wanderers competed with Cork but never looked like beating Mark McNulty so it it City who march on and deservedly so. The league title looks to be wrapped up, can they retain the FAI Cup too?
