The Lilywhites, who are the reigning champions, made light work of their opponents in the all-Premier Division affair at Oriel Park. Dylan Connolly bagged a brace against his former club, before Jamie McGrath followed up Ronan Murray’s saved effort to make sure of the result.
A rare goal from David Cawley was enough to take the Bit O’Red into the next round ahead of high-flying Waterford.
Meanwhile, the meeting of two First Division sides saw Darren Murphy score a free-kick at the end of the first half and Andy Wall then wrapped things up late on.
The semi-final draw will be made on the Greatest League in the World podcast this Sunday.
Tonight’s results:
Cobh Ramblers 2-0 Longford Town
Dundalk 3-0 Bohemians
Sligo Rovers 1-0 Waterford
