A minute left of normal time, the home fans in party mode and the procession about to unfold, Daryl Horgan and Ciaran Kilduff ripped up the script.
A perfect free kick straight onto the head of Horgan was flicked beautifully into the net and Dundalk were sent into ecstasy.
The Lilywhites' hero grappled with his man, he shoved him right out of his road and finished expertly to show that this Irish side are not overawed and they're certainly not here to make up the numbers.
That goal, incidentally, was worth 120,000 euros. That's how much it pays to draw in the Europa League. That's how much it meant to Dundalk.
More than a full season of success could've given them in the League of Ireland.

Now, they move on. That's what Dundalk do, they search for the next feat, the next scalp, the next record still unbroken.
They're writing their story as they go and you get this special feeling that Stephen Kenny and his men are only getting started. And they're doing it for all of Irish football.
The League of Ireland champions welcome Maccabi Tel Aviv to Tallaght in two weeks time. They do so as equals with the rest of Europe.
They do so as heroes.
