There was euphoria for the women and disappointment for the men.
Athlone Town had to settle for a win and a loss over the weekend.
The women's side took home a victory in dramatic fashion in the Sports Direct Womens FAI Cup against Galway United after going scoreless in 90 minutes and extra time.
That game went to penalties, with a final score of 5-4.
