Result: Saints 2 - Wexford 1
A stunning last minute winner from Aidan Keena was needed to book St Patrick's Athletic's passage through to the last 16 of the Club Orange FAI Cup, First Division Wexford making Stephen Kenny's side work every inch of the way at Richmond Park.
Though St Patrick's dominated possession throughout, they struggled to build on Jay McClelland's first half lead and got punished from Jake Doyle's cracking equaliser midway through the second half.
But with the watch into the 90th minute and extra-time looming, striker Keena collected substitute James Brown's pass to turn Adam Verdon and rifle a sublime right-foot shot to the net off the far post to finally beat Paul Martin for a second time.
