Crusaders won the big Tennent's Irish Cup last 16 tie on Saturday, beating Linfield 2-1 after extra-time at Windsor Park.

Following a scoreless 90 minutes, Jordan Owens put the Crues in front with a sensational strike from the edge of the area.

Blues sub Marek Cervenka equalised but defender Billy Joe Burns hit a last-gasp winner against his old club. 

Another former Linfield player, Crues winger Ross Clarke, has told Q Radio it was a huge victory...

Blues boss David Healy says it could have been so different...
