Longford Town and Wayside Celtic must meet for a third time in this first round cup clash after another two hours of football in last night's replay failed to separate them at Strokestown Road.

The Leinster Senior League side deservedly took the lead in the torrential rain and winds when Ian Callaghan's header looped over Anthony Keenan in the 19th minute.

But the home side came out transformed after the break and were soon level. A neat flick from Conor Frawley put Alan Doherty through for a delightful finish on 54 minutes.

Longford Town: Keenan, Malone, Lennon, Darby, Murphy, Rooney, Frawley, Hardy, Doherty, Dunleavy, Larkin.

Wayside Celtic: Sullivan, Grimes, O Douchan, Simpson, Jackson, P Byrne, M Byrne, Leavy, Fitzpatrick, Callaghnan, Roche. Sub: Wise for Leavy (107 mins).
