Cobh Ramblers 4-0 Wexford FC
Cobh Ramblers produced a devastating performance to kick-start their season and to keep in touch of the play-off positions.
After an even opening, Ramblers went ahead in the 26th minute thanks to David Hurley's effort. Six minutes later, it was 2-0 as Darragh Crowley, on loan from Cork City, added to the scoreline.
Incredibly, six minutes after that goal, Cobh sealed the victory before the break through Lee Molloy. Molloy got his second of the game four minutes from time as Ramblers welcome Longford Town to St. Colman's Park on Saturday.
