Waterford have advanced to the quarter-finals of the Irish Daily Mail FAI Cup after they defeated Drogheda United 1-0 at United Park.

Bastien Héry's spectacular strike after four minutes was all that separated the sides on a cold night in Drogheda.

Akinade and Hunt both missed glorious chances to double Waterford's lead but they lived dangerously in the second-half as Drogheda pushed men forward in desperate attempt at an equaliser.

It mattered little though as the Premier Division take their place in next round's draw.
