As a result of this win, they will now face Dublin AUL side WFTA in the next round after they defeated Douglas Hall of Cork 3-0.
Meanwhile there was no luck for Waterford other side remaining in the competition as 2006 champions Waterford Crystal bowed out at the hands of holders Ballymun United after extra time at the AUL Complex on Sunday afternoon.
