Cool! First Irish player to score in a non-Irish Cup final in... well, about four hours.

But before that though? Anthony Stokes for Hibs in 2016?

Edit - Jonny Hayes scored for Aberdeen in the 2017 final. Any improvements on that?

First Irish player to score in the cup final of one of the big five leagues (England/Spain/Germany/France/Italy) since John Aldridge in 1989? First Irish born player to do it since Frank Stapleton in 1983? Or have I missed someone?

Are we counting Kelleher's penalty in the league cup final shoot out last season?

I wasn't counting the league cup at all to be honest, was thinking more the primary cup competition in each country.

Shoot-out goals don't usually count anyway (much and all as you'd be tempted to make an exception for a keeper)
