Report: Longford Town and Cork City must meet again, following a last gasp equaliser from Vinny Perth in the second round of FAI Cup at Flancare Park, Longford. In a tight game, Pat Morley struck with just nine minutes remaining as City looked like stealing the tie from under the noses of Stephen Kenny’s side.

However the midlanders weren’t to be undone and hit back on the stroke of full time, with Perth deservedly rescuing the tie, which is likely to be replayed at Turner's Cross on Sunday, January 14th. [Report: RTÉ]
