The Park went on to create a bucketfull of chances but the damage was already done and AC progress who lost Conor Diggins for a second yellow card transgression. Spa Road 2 Asdee Rovers 1 THIS replay was another tight game with all three goals scored in the first half. Spa Road seemed to be well on their way when they raced into a two goal lead with a goals from John Quirke and an own goal.

Asdee fought back and a Darren Russell goal brought them right back into the game. They enjoyed a lot of possession in the second half but were unable to bring the game back to parity so Spa Road progress to the next round. Na Fianna 1 Tralee Celtic 2 (after extra-time) THIS replay was another cliff hanger which went to extra time to decide the issue. Na Fianna went ahead after 20 minutes but Tralee Celtic equalsied with a Jamie Blake strike five minutes from the break.

The deadlock was not resolved in the second half and it then went into extra time. Ruaidh Hennessy fired Celtic ahead and it was enough to win the game for them.
