Dundalk first-team manager Keegan convinced of Arsenal upset | OneFootball

Dundalk first-team manager Shane Keegan hopes his side can carry some momentum into Thursday's clash with Arsenal in the Europa League.

The Irish side won the FAI Cup final over Shamrock Rovers on Sunday.

Speaking to reporters, Keegan said: "It was a brilliant result for us on Sunday. It was a hard fought victory for sure but that makes it all the sweeter. It was a strength of mentality in the end of it and it was great to be a part of.

"A nice handy one to finish off against Arsenal! But the lads are running on momentum at the moment. Let's be honest, this would have been a long and horrible week had we lost on Sunday.

"We would have wanted the season to wrap up at that stage if it didn't go our way but it has and there are smile on faces, no talk of tiredness of fatigue and everyone is looking forward to a crack at a 'Super Club' if you want to call it that."
