Championship Warrenpoint Town produced a stunning extra-time performance to beat Irish Premiership side Crusaders 5-2 in the BetMcLean Cup at Milltown.

Rory Powell opened the scoring for the hosts five minutes before the break with a powerful strike from 25 yards, and Crusaders forward Thomas Maguire was then sent off for an off the ball incident after the restart.

Despite being a man down, Declan Caddell's side rallied and Donal Rocks equalised on the hour-mark before Adam Reid put the Crues in front.

But there was late drama when Powell powered home the leveller with nine minutes remaining to send the game to extra time.

Powell completed his hat-trick three minutes after the restart with a powerful header before Daire Trainor and Adetobi Jinadu secured the win.

Cliftonville, Dungannon Swifts, Limavady United were among the sides who won their first-round ties on Tuesday.

The draw for the second round takes place on Friday at 16:30 BST when Larne, Coleraine, Glentoran and holders Linfield enter the competition.
