Linfield take on Cliftonville in Irish Cup final for the first time in 90 years

David Healy has highlighted the respectful relationship between Linfield and Cliftonville as the two sides prepare to meet in the Irish Cup final for the first time in 90 years.

“There will be 15,000 at the game and we want it to be played in the right manner and the showpiece it should be. My players will be finely tuned, fired up and ready to go. Hopefully, we can show anyone watching the game that we can hold a good Cup final in front of a big crowd and everyone toes the line on and off the pitch.”

"I've worked with Jim, played with Jim and know the type of character he is - he was always going to demand the highest standards and he has certainly got that. Cliftonville are in the final again and everybody knows they haven't won the Irish Cup in such a long time, so they're going to be desperate to go and put that right."
