Waterford's Lee O'Connor equalised on 50 minutes - his first goal at that level.

Troy Parrott and Adam Idah also found the back of the net before Waterford FC's Zack Elbouzedi made it 4-1 on 87 minutes.

It was Elbouzedi's second goal in two games. He gave the goalkeeper no chance tapping home a left-wing cross.
