Seamus Coleman and the Republic of Ireland have earned themselves a play-off spot in the World Cup Qualifiers after a dramatic 3-2 win over Hungary in Budapest.
Ireland twice came from behind with Troy Parrott scoring a remarkable hat-trick.
Killybegs man Coleman was once again to the fore and played sixty minutes in the success.
The play-offs will be held in March and Ireland will aim to win a semi-final and then a final to reach the World Cup.
