Glen McAuley produced one of the all-time moments of FAI Cup magic on his Athlone Town to force a penalty shoot-out with Waterford on Friday night.
The striker sealed his hat trick in the fourth minute of injury time at the end of extra time with an audacious shot from inside his own half and ensure the game finished 4-4 after 120 minutes.
George Forrest looked to have sealed the win for Waterford moments earlier, only for Shelbourne loanee McAuley to wind up a shot directly from the kick off that beat Paul Martin.
