The City goalkeeper, who saved Shane O'Connor's late penalty, admitted he visited McBride's grave hours before this afternoon's kick-off and dedicated the win to the Brandywell man.

Doherty, who will be holding his testimonial night in the Maldron Hotel on Saturday October 27, is now hoping their EA Sports Cup success can push them on for the remainder of the season.
