For minutes after Damien Cahalane's red card, midway through the second half in Cork and Waterford's All-Ireland semi-final, it looked like the Rebels might defy logic and go on to win despite being down to 14 players.

Then, up stepped Austin Gleeson.

During a dominant five minutes, first Gleeson scored an incredible long range point. That was followed by a brilliant pass for Waterford's second goal of the game, scored by Jamie Barron.

He capped it off with a sensational solo goal - the hurling equivalent of Owen Mulligan's slaloming run against Dublin in 2005.

15 minutes from the final whistle, Gleeson didn't have a score to his name - he would end up with 1-2 as Waterford progressed to their first All-Ireland final since 2008.

Herre's that brilliant pass for Jamie Barron's first goal.
