Paul Kee admitted H&W Welders last-gasp Irish Cup defeat to Larne was "heartbreaking" but he was full pride for his team's performance against the Premiership leaders.
The home side produced a superb showing at Blanchflower Park and almost edged in front at the start of the second half as Michael McLellan was denied by Rohan Ferguson.
But Andy Ryan broke the Welders hearts with a 90th minute winner to seal a place in the last four.
