A homecoming event will be held for the Waterford FC players this evening after their FAI Cup Final defeat.
The Blues lost out 1-0 to Derry City at the Aviva Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
It was the first time that Waterford had reached Irish soccer’s showpiece event since 2004.
In honour of that achievement, a homecoming event will take place at the RSC this evening.
Waterford FC announced the event in a post on social media last night.
A club spokesperson said: “To recognise our players’ efforts and our incredible Blues supporters, we are delighted to announce we will be hosting a homecoming for the Waterford players & staff tomorrow evening at the RSC.
“In collaboration with Waterford City & County Council, we will welcome the team home at the RSC at 7pm, with gates open from 6pm at the RSC.”
“See you tomorrow, Blues,” they concluded.
