WATCH: Irish Cup victory shows the 'character' within Dungannon Swifts' changing room, says Rodney McAree

A penalty shoot-out win against the Reds meant the Stangmore Park-based outfit lifted the famous trophy for the first time in the club’s history.

McAree thought his 10-man side would have held onto a slender advantage via John McGovern’s first-half goal – but they were pegged back when Shea Kearney drilled in a stoppage-time equaliser to send the tie into extra-time.

However, Swifts ‘keeper Declan Dunne proved to be the hero as he saved two penalties to send McAree’s men into dreamland.
