Meath produced a performance of gigantic proportions and looked set to claim the honours for the first time since 2021 when leading by four points heading into the three minutes of added time. However, Kildare finished with a flourish with a goal and then an equalising point to leave it 1-11 each and send the match to extra-time. Then in that additional 20 plus minutes Meath again found themselves ahead, this time by the minimum before a free of the softest variety allowed Kildare to again draw level right at the death and leave the match to be decided by a penalty shoot-out.

Celtic left it late to book their spot in the quarter-finals of the Scottish Cup, as they defeated Dundee 2-1 after extra-time. Having lost December's League Cup final to St. Mirren during Wilfried Nancy's ill-fated time at the helm, the Hoops looked to be on their way out of the Scottish Cup at Celtic Park, as they trailed 1-0 heading into second-half stoppage time.

Despite Chelsea's victory, Caicedo's yellow card could prove to be damaging to hopes of further progression in the competition. He had the most completed passes (116), touches (144), final third entries (20), and possessions won (10) in the match.

Chelsea's impressive performance in extra time highlights their resilience and offensive strength, showcasing their ability to score three goals in a short nine-minute span.
