Gavin Whyte scored a blistering hat-trick as 10-man Oxford United came from behind to beat Shrewsbury Town on Easter Monday.
The former Crusaders youngster netted three times to help Oxford claim a 3-2 win at Montgomery Waters Meadow.
Whyte broke the deadlock in the sixth minute but Shrewsbury responded with first half goals from Oliver Norburn (penalty) and Greg Docherty.
The visitors also had Ahmed Kashi sent off in the first half as their plight worsened before the break.
But two goals in six minutes turned the game on its head, with Whyte again on target in the 72nd and then completing his hat-trick in the 78th.
For the winner, Whyte raced on to Cameron Brannagan's through ball, raced clear of two defenders before hammering his shot past Jonathan Mitchell to spark wild scenes in the away end.
The Northern Ireland international picked up a booking moments later, but it did little to dampen the celebrations as Whyte and Oxford celebrated a mesmerising win.
